Description
Part of an oral history project that collected stories from anonymous men who were arrested as found-ins during the 1981 Bathhouse Raids in Toronto.
Mark discusses his sexuality, his relationship to the community, the night of the raids, the legal and psychological aftermath, and its political consequences. He also considers at length the way sexuality is policed in Canadian society, details of the court proceedings and personal impact upon Mark, his use of the bathhouses, and the purpose of the bathhouses within the gay community in Toronto.
