Plaque To Commemorate Riot At Christie Pits

I've BLOGged before about Christie Pits park and its history, including the race riot of 1933.
They say that to ignore history is to risk repeating it and, probably with that in mind, the city is going to put a plaque in the park to commemorate the riots.
It will be unveiled on August 17 at 11 am. Jocko Thomas will be on hand, as will Deputy Mayor Joe Pantalone and Cyril Levitt, author of The Riot at Christie Pits.
Cheers,
