This references a news story from 1981.

On Feb. 4, 1981, the Toronto gay community, like many communities, was somewhat fractured, with many disparate voices and factions offering opinions on how to advance their issues.

.



But the next night marked a pivotal moment in galvanizing the community — when police officers armed with crowbars and sledgehammers raided four city bathhouses and arrested more than 250 gay men.

  1. Great murals Jackie, the second and third were my favourites. The Pride village murals were fabulous too, thanks for putting up the link again.

  2. Good variety ... and I didn't know about the Toronto raid. I like to think that we're past that these days, but I know there's still a lot of hate in the world.

  3. ...Elicser's work is always a treat to see. BKEZ's mural looks similar to Shawn Dunwoody's. And here I thought that shit only happened here!
