#LGBTQ in the 50s/60s faced an #antigay legal system. Police raids on #gay bars were routine but officers quickly lost control of the situation at the #StonewallInn. Enter #StorméDeLarverie, a #butch #lesbian whose scuffle with police was the spark that ignited the #stonewallriots spurring the crowd to action. She was born in New Orleans, to a #Black mother and a #White father. Shes remembered as a gay #civilrightsicon /entertainer. She was the "guardian of #lesbians in the Village." She is known as "the Rosa Parks of the gay community." The Stonewall riots were a series of spontaneous, violent demonstrations by members of the #LGBT community against a police raid that began in the early morning of June 28, 1969, at the Stonewall Inn in Greenwich Village, Manhattan, New York. They’re considered the most important event leading to the gay liberation movement and the modern fight for LGBT rights in America. Tensions between police and gay residents of Greenwich erupted into more protests the next evening & several nights later. Within weeks, Village residents quickly organized into activist groups to concentrate efforts on establishing places for gays and lesbians to be open about their sexual orientation without fear of being arrested. On June 28, 1970, the first #gaypride marches took place in NY, LA, San Francisco & Chicago commemorating the anniversary of the riots. Today, LGBT #pride events are held annually throughout the world the end of June to mark the Stonewall riots. And we can’t forget #MarshaPJohnson who was a gay liberation activist and #dragqueen. Johnson was one of the prominent figures in the Stonewall uprising. Johnson has been named “one of the individuals known to have been in the vanguard" of the pushback against the police at the uprising. Along with Johnson and Delarverie, #SylviaRivera, #ThomasLaniganSchmidt & #CraigRodwell are known as notable participants of the riots. 🏳️‍🌈🌈☮️ #PrideMonth #MixedLGBT #stonewall51 #blacktranslivesmatter (at Stonewall Inn) https://www.instagram.com/p/CB_ZSyklbXq/?igshid=6p5rz9t57fip

The Stonewall Riots of 1969 in New York City are largely considered the major turning point of the international LGBTQ movement, powering the decades of activism that followed. After Stonewall, members of the anti-war student movement, civil rights movement, and black power movement brought a new perspective to LGTBQ activism and DIY newspapers and magazines helped spread the movement throughout the world. The exhibition “Love and Resistance: Stonewall 50,” hosted by the New York Public Library, draws from the library’s robust collection of artifacts reflecting LGBTQ history to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the riots, and the historic moments of the LGBTQ community that followed. Jason Bauman, who curated the exhibition, told Global Citizen about his motivation for the show, explaining that, “You get this narrative of LGBTQ movements … First there was Stonewall, then there was AIDS and everybody felt bad for gay people, and then there was gay marriage. [But] in between there’s actually all of this political activism that takes place.” Pictured here, Daria Fane demonstrate for humans rights during a protest at NYU's Weinstein Hall in 1970. “Stonewall 50” features intimate shots of the LGBTQ movement, taken by pioneering photojournalists Kay Tobin Lahusen and Diana Davies.
