body2body got a reaction from AndreFuture in Stonewall movie.
Not to hijack this thread- but Stonewall wasn't the first action of this type. The police abuse of gay people in other parts of the country were causing a incidents in Los Angeles and San Francisco. Here is the account of the events at the Black Cat Tavern in the Silverlake neighborhood of L.A. 1967:
The bar was established in November 1966.
Police raid and LGBT demonstrations
Two months later, on the night of New Year's 1967, several plain-clothes LAPD police officers infiltrated the Black Cat Tavern.[3] After arresting several patrons for kissing as they celebrated the occasion,[4] the undercover police officers began beating several of the patrons[5] and ultimately arrested thirteen patrons and three bartenders.[5] This created a riot in the immediate area that expanded to include the bar across Sanborn Avenue called New Faces, where officers knocked down the owner, a woman, and beat two bartenders unconscious.[6]
Several days later, this police action incited a civil demonstration of over 200 attendees to protest the raids. The demonstration was organized by a group called PRIDE (Personal Rights in Defense and Education).[7] The protest was met by squadrons of armed policemen.[3] Two of the men arrested for kissing were later convicted under state law and registered as sex offenders. The men appealed, asserting their right of equal protection under the law, but the U.S. Supreme Court did not accept their case.[8]
It was from this event that the publication The Advocate began as a newspaper for PRIDE (Personal Rights in Defense and Education).[9] Together the raid on the Black Cat Tavern and later the raid on The Patch in August 1968 inspired the formation of the Metropolitan Community Church (led by Pastor Troy Perry).[10][11]
These events pre-dated the Stonewall riots by over two years.[8]

body2body got a reaction from + stevenkesslar in Stonewall movie.
I came out in 1970, and got involved in the Gay Liberation movement right from the start. One of the discussions you heard most frequently was whether we should suppress Drag Queens, Transexuals, and effeminate men from appearing at demonstrations. There were always "normal" looking guys who could "pass" ( in the parlance of the time), who did not want obvious Queens to be on display as part of the movement. When we founded a Gay Students Union at my University, one our first actions was to found a speakers bureau to send panels to speak to classes, and other student organizations. There was a huge battle within our organization about who would be acceptable to send out to represent us. It was a very turbulent time. When it was mentioned that the Stonewall riots were largely fought by drag queens and Transexuals, some people did not want to believe it.
On one hand I'm glad that so much has changed, and the strides our community has made. When I see two young guys, or young women walking hand in hand, and being affectionate it makes me smile. By the same token, young people today are so ignorant of what life used to be like, and the efforts, that have been made by so many men and women to achieve the freedom that so many take for granted. Some of those people were ones we would be very uncomfortable around today.
