THAT WAS RAY

"Here was this guy with a clerical collar, a crucifix, and a double barrel shotgun standing in front of a crowd of reporters shouting: 'We're not going to stand by any longer. No, we're going on the offensive.' That was Ray." 

​

Dive into the life of the most controversial figure in gay rights history- Reverend Raymond Broshears. A man loved by many, hated by more, who's name was written out of the history books.

 

Follow him as he evolves from a closeted bible-school student to the founder of the world's first gay militant vigilante group, The Lavender Panthers, and discover the truth behind "The Most Dangerous Gay Man in America."
