Book
Queers were here : heroes & icons of queer Canada / edited by Robin Ganev and RJ Gilmour.
"In the 21st century, Canada has a reputation for being one of the most gay friendly nations on earth, a pioneer in legalizing same-sex marriage and home to enormously popular Pride parades. Yet Canada was not always so hospitable to its gay and lesbian citizens. Homesexuality was only decriminalized in Canada in 1969 and remained socially stigmatized for years. Queers Were Here will tell personal stories to iluminate the enormous social changes that have transformed sexuality in Canada. A celebration of queer identity, this book will look back in order to look forward. The book will appeal not only to LGBTQ audiences but also to anyone who wants to re-examine Canada's history and culture with fresh eyes."--Publisher.
