The(ir) Blurb...

In 1832, a Canadian Infantryman was hanged for making love with another man. The victim’s rank was Private, and his name was Flowers. Created as part of Awakening with Toronto History Museum, Private Flowers is part of a series of art projects by BIPOC creators, operating under the principles of anti-oppression, anti-colonialism and anti-racism and is part of the city’s efforts to address anti-Black racism.
