Program Title: No Queers In Uniform
Description: On Saturday Sept. 18th in Toronto, 40 people came out for a pink bloc action called to confront the police. The cops were planning on hosting a queer recruitment drive at the 519 community centre, in the village. Organized under the banner, No Queers In Uniform, they planned their own recruitment drive to draw attention to the queer-phobic policies and tactics of the police. Earful of Queer was there to get the low down on exactly what was going down on church st.

The Demonstration handed out informational leaflets, held speeches and chants and took over the sidewall in front of the police recruitment drive to disrupt their attempts at recruiting any more queers to their force.

Host(s):
Featured Speakers/Guests: Organizers and participants in the No Queers in Uniform Demo.

Credits: Earful of Queer on CFRU 93.3 from 3-4PM everyone Monday in Guelph
