Cruising the Downtown: Celebrating Edmonton's Queer History (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781774391181)

The city of Edmonton, a large and growing Canadian metropolis, has a robust and thriving 2SLGBTQ+ community, with a too often unknown history. Extending the work of The Edmonton Queer History Project, Cruising the Downtown is a collaborative history and celebrates the people, places, and moments that have shaped and continue to shape the history of our city by moving through civic landmarks, sites of queer resistance, nightlife, celebration, and activist spaces.

Recalling collections such as Any Other Way: How Toronto Got Queer, Out North: An Archive of Queer Activism and Kinship in Canada, and similar projects, Cruising the Downtown and The Edmonton Queer History Project continue the important work of recognition, space-making, and community building as we move together into a less certain future than any of us could have hoped for.
