'It’s waved above the heads of queer freedom fighters for the last 20 years,' says Leada Stray of the transgender pride flag that went missing from the window of their Capitol Hill home Wednesday.
A transgender pride flag with a storied history has gone missing in Burnaby, and its owner is making a plea for its return.
“It’s waved above the heads of queer freedom fighters for the last 20 years,” Stray told the NOW. “It’s seen every major Canadian human rights fight in the last 20 years. It’s travelled to places like Australia, Moscow Pride, New York City, Europe. It’s gone everywhere.” As a leader in the community, Stray feels responsible to protect the history of the flag and is putting out a call for its return.
