How a Homophobic Witch Hunt Led to the Table Rock Cross
The Table Rock cross is a familiar part of our skyline. But its origins are tangled in an era of fear and secrecy, when city leaders targeted and arrested gay men — just for existing. So to help us mark Pride Month, we’re re-sharing a conversation our Hey Boise newsletter editor Blake Hunter had with producer Frankie Barnhill — to peel back the curtain on this long forgotten scandal.
Want some more Boise history? Head over to our Hey Boise newsletter where you’ll get a regular deep dive into the stories that shaped our city.
