"For the first time in the history of Historica Canada카지노 게임 컬렉션s Heritage Minutes, the newest segment focuses on LGBTQ history in Canada, specifically Jim Egan, Canada카지노 게임 컬렉션s first gay rights activist. Acting as a historical consultant for the Minute was Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s 카지노게임사이트 history professor Steven Maynard.
카지노 게임 컬렉션Historica Canada is trying to broaden the scope of its Heritage Minutes and make them more inclusive,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says Dr. Maynard, who worked on the project for over a year. 카지노 게임 컬렉션They have a new Minute that focuses on Indigenous people and residential schools, while another examines Viola Desmond and the experience of African Canadians. This is the first time they have explored the LGBTQ community in Canada.카지노 게임 컬렉션
Mr. Egan was chosen as the subject of the Minute because of his work as an activist in 1949 when he regularly wrote to publications criticizing inaccurate portrayals of lesbian and gay people. He also wrote letters to politicians advocating for fairer treatment of lesbians and gays under the law. This activism took place years before homosexuality was decriminalized in 1969, and it is captured in the opening sequence of the Minute."
