Acerca de Trains of Thought: A Tribute to Stanley Grizzle

Trains of Thought: A Tribute to Stanley Grizzle explores the legacy of Stanley Grizzle (Griz-zel): sleeping car porter, civil rights advocate, and community leader. Created by the Black Community Resource Centre in collaboration with Library and Archives Canada, this youth-driven series highlights the overlooked history of the porters, their struggles, resilience, and the movements they helped ignite. Each episode blends research, reflection, and storytelling to carry these voices forward and connect their lessons to today.

Pilgrimage in a Fragmented Space

On this episode of Trains of Thought, Jephte Joseph explores pilgrimage as more than a journey and sits down with Andrew Jackson. A search for solace in spaces once sustained by determination, moulded to help us face reality, yet haunted by the urge to relive a past grown blurry. What happens when the place we seek slips away, leaving us scattered and returning only to fragments? In those fragments, we find not wholeness, but traces that remind us some returns can never be complete, yet still shape how we carry the past within us. Pilgrimage in a Fragmented Space delves into these themes, inspired by the stories of Black sleeping car porters, revealing the layers of immigrant life, displacement, (fractured) Black communities, and expropriation.

Postcards from the Road: Black Porters, Untold Journeys & the Stories We Carry

On this episode of Trains of Thought, Kristian Rouse-Robinson sits down with Marty Lewis, diversity-in-travel advocate, content creator, and author of The ABC Travel Green Book.  From chance airport meetings to global adventures, Marty has become one of the leading voices of today’s Black travel movement, making sure Black travelers are seen, supported, and celebrated.  Together, they dive into Black travel, the spaces we’re reclaiming, and the often-overlooked stories of Black Canadian history.  Inspired by her great-grandfather’s letters from his days as a sleeping car porter, Kristian connects past and present to explore the Black travel movement, the legacies we’ve inherited, and the ones we’re building right now.

Riding the Train For the First Time: Oral History for the Untrained Oral Historian

On this episode of Trains of Thought, Jean-Philippe Djehoury speaks with Dr. Stacey Zembrzycki, an oral historian and author of According to Baba, about two unlikely yet powerful oral historians: her Ukrainian-Canadian grandmother, Olga Zembrzycki, and Stanley Grizzle, a Black Canadian porter and civil rights leader. Neither had formal training in oral history. But both became key figures in preserving the memory of their communities—Sudbury’s Ukrainian immigrants and Canada’s Black railway porters. How? And at what cost? Together, we explore the concept of experiential authority: the intuitive power and pitfalls of storytelling from within a community. From ethical tensions to emotional breakthroughs, this episode is a guide for every passionate memory keeper wondering: Do I need to be trained to do this work? The response of our guest might surprise you. (Spoiler: Yes, you can do it without training. Tune in to know how!) Whether you’re an untrained storyteller, an emerging historian, or someone recording your community’s past at the kitchen table, this conversation is for you.
