Summary:
"A gritty ride through Toronto's immigrant neighbourhoods,
Christie
Pits
tells the incredible true history of when young Jewish and Italian immigrants squared off against Nazi-inspired thugs on the streets of Toronto. This is the hostory of a gruff and unrecognizable Canada -- one of 'swastika clubs' and public bigotry. A homemade swastika flag flown at a public baseball game was the spark that found tinder in these untenable and hateful conditions. What followed was the worst race riot in Canadian history. Archival research and first-hand interview lend historical depth to an unknown story of resistance against hatred in uncertain times."--Publisher.
Genre:
