Jackie Shane
Dublin Core
Title
Jackie Shane
Description
This is an image of Jackie Shane from the late 1960s in what would have been generally considered masculine clothing at the time, despite her feminine identity. Here, Jackie is shown presenting herself confidently as something outside of the norm, despite Toronto’s lack of understanding when it came to queer culture.
