Description

Welcome to Season 2 of Queer Legends: The True Story About Canada's LGBT Purge. We begin with amazing new research that has uncovered what life was like for gay and bisexual soldiers during the First World War. From the "gross indecency" laws that imprisoned heroic Canadian queer soldiers, to the military-sanctioned drag shows that made Ross Hamilton's 'Marjorie' a star. This is where Canada's anti-queer campaign and the Cold War began. You'll also hear from someone who knew Ross Hamilton, personally!
