Queer Here, Queer There


Episode 1: History of Montreal's Queer Spaces

August 08, 2019

EPISODE SUMMARY
For the first episode of Queer Here, Queer There, Noah dives into the history of queer spaces in Montreal. Tune in for the stories of how parks have played a vital role in Montreal's queer scene, of Montreal's two Stonewall-esque moments, and of the evolution of Montreal's three gay villages.

EPISODE NOTES
Queer spaces do not have a widely accepted definition, but most consider queer spaces to be places where queer people are accepted, safety and security is at least somewhat ensured, and they act as sites of community building and social interactions amongst queer people.
