Lesbian and gay people's struggle for equality is sometimes characterized by the phrase "Remember Stonewall!" To what is this phrase referring?
The phrase "Remember Stonewall!" refers to the Stonewall riots, a series of spontaneous, violent demonstrations by members of the gay (LGBTQ+) community in response to a police raid that took place in the early morning hours of June 28, 1969, at the Stonewall Inn in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City.
The Stonewall Inn was a gay bar and recreational tavern at the time, and the raid was part of a pattern of harassment and discrimination by authorities against LGBTQ+ establishments and individuals. The riots are widely considered to be one of the most important events leading to the gay liberation movement and the modern fight for LGBTQ+ rights in the United States.
The phrase "Remember Stonewall!" serves as a rallying cry to not forget the struggle and resistance that sparked the movement towards equality and justice for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer people. It is a reminder of the courage and activism of those who stood up against oppression and marks a pivotal moment in the community's ongoing fight against prejudice, discrimination, and the fight for equal rights.
