This untold history of Toronto’s Black queer community spans four decades of passionate activist rebellion. Refusing to be silenced and raging with love, the trailblazers featured in this documentary demanded a city where all can live their truths free from the threat of violence. Each bit of revolutionary ground was gained collaboratively, whether protesting police brutality, forming feminist collectives, or making room for grief and healing in the wake of the HIV/AIDS pandemic. Their transformative creativity and visionary organizing made Toronto more livable for generations to follow. OUR DANCE OF REVOLUTION celebrates the living legends among us by unearthing what has been made invisible.
