Site of the June 28, 1969 Stonewall Riots often described as the start of the modern Gay and Lesbian rights movement.
There are also two “docudrama’s” named “Stonewall”, and various documentaries about its place in LGBTI history.
“Our gayness is not something like skin colour, or sex, or infirmity, apparent to both us and others. We have to discover our homosexuality, and having discovered it, we have a wide range of options, hardly available to others who are stigmatized, as to how we should reveal our stigma.”
Dennis Altman (1971) Homosexual Oppression and Liberation. New York, NY: Avon Books.
