Description

In San Francisco during the 1970s, Rev. Ray Broshears took to the streets to do the job the police wouldn't, forming the Lavender Panthers, an armed self-defense group. In interviews with Ray's friend Elisa Rleigh, and author Jim Van Buskirk, That Was Ray shows how violence was met with violence to defend the community that many fought and died for.
