Summary:

"On August 1, 1971, a group of gay and lesbian activists organized Toronto's first "Gay Day Picnic" at Hanlan's Point Beach, and the efforts put forth that summer afternoon sparked a movement. Since then, millions of local and international visitors have attended and supported Toronto Pride. Today, it is one of the largest gatherings of the LGBTQ2+ community and their allies in the world. Joy. Sorrow. Anger. Love. PRIDE: A Celebration of Toronto Pride, 1970s - present is the first broadly available publication and exhibition on the Canadian movement. Incorporating photography, ephemera, posters, and writings by community leaders, the project focuses on the history of Toronto Pride throughout its long and sometimes turbulent journey."--Publisher's website.
