Özet
 That’s the Stonewall.
The Stonewall Inn.
Pay attention.
History walks through that door.

In 1969 being gay in the United States was a criminal offense. It meant living a closeted life or surviving on the fringes of society. People went to jail, lost jobs, and were disowned by their families for being gay. Most doctors considered homosexuality a mental illness. There were few safe havens. The Stonewall Inn, a Mafia-run, filthy, overpriced bar in New York City’s Greenwich Village, was one of them.

Police raids on gay bars happened regularly in this era. But one hot June night, when cops pounded on the door of the Stonewall, almost nothing went as planned. Tensions were high. The crowd refused to go away. Anger and frustration boiled over.

The raid became a riot.

The riot became a catalyst.

The catalyst triggered an explosive demand for gay rights.

Ann Bausum’s riveting exploration of the Stonewall Riots and the national Gay Rights movement that followed is eye-opening, unflinching, and inspiring. Geography & Cultures Growing Up & Facts of Life History History & Culture LGBTQ+ Literature & Fiction North America Büyümek

i have read a lot of accounts of the night of the riots and this is the most detailed providing an excellent account of the background to the police activities that were the real cause of the conflict.

Well written account of the night

I loved this book ! It details the struggles the LGBTQ communities faced and how far we as a society have come and how far we still have to go in terms of acceptance.
Well done !
Love is love ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
