The initiative, part of the municipal Fils de Memòria project, seeks to fill the existing documentary gap regarding the local history of the movement. Starting June 10th, the virtual exhibition titled Les organitzacions LGTBIQ+ a Terrassa: de la clandestinitat als carrers will be available, featuring testimonies and unpublished documents.
The collection includes materials ranging from the presentation of the Front d'Alliberament Gai de Catalunya at the Sagrada Família parish to the work of local entities. According to the archive's management, this documentation is essential to complete the city's historical narrative, which until now had significant gaps in this area.
“"It is what we older people must do, remember and teach the young people."
The project also includes a pioneering educational dossier for high schools, aimed at addressing affective diversity in classrooms. The exhibition is structured into four stages, from the clandestine years of the 70s, through the silence imposed during the AIDS crisis in the 80s, to the current institutional consolidation with services such as SAI DASIG.
