Did you know?
In April of 1966, a few members the Mattachine Society, founded in 1950 by Harry Hay, hosted a “sip-in” at Julius’, a tavern in New York City, to challenge the ban on serving alcohol to queer people. They would identify themselves as homosexuals before requesting service. Julius’ was the fourth bar they visited in their sip-in, after the first two were closed and the third ignored the law entirely. Upon being denied service at Julius’, the Mattachine Society sued the bar, resulting in the landmark decision that allowed gays to peaceably assemble in public, paving the way for legal, licensed gay bars. Ironically, this bar has been a gay bar for quite some time, hosting a monthly party called Mattachine.
