Time for a quick history lesson titled <em>The Stonewall Riots<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Widely considered the most important event leading to the gay liberation movement. <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Stonewall_riots\">The Stonewall Riots<\/a> happened the morning of June 28th, 1969, in New York City.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong>At the time, there weren\u2019t many places that welcomed the gay (LGBT) community. One of the few that did\u00a0was the Stonewall Inn &#8211; a tavern in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of Lower Manhattan:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1014\" src=\"https:\/\/www.journohq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/stonewall.jpeg\" alt=\"The Stonewall Inn\" width=\"720\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.journohq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/stonewall.jpeg 720w, https:\/\/www.journohq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/stonewall-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.journohq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/stonewall-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.journohq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/stonewall-180x180.jpeg 180w, https:\/\/www.journohq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/stonewall-600x600.jpeg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">But on the morning of that day in June, a police raid went down but it did not go as planned\u00a0and became\u00a0a breaking point for the community facing an anti-gay legal system.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">A crowd was forming and growing larger as the police arrested the patrons. One\u00a0woman, who repeatedly escaped, was hit with a baton. She then\u00a0provoked the crowd to fight when she looked at the bystanders and shouted \u2018Why don\u2019t you guys do something?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">At that point, the spark had been lit and violence broke out. A spontaneous revolt began against the oppression that they had put up with for far too long, and lasted for 6 days.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The riots were a turning point&#8230;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Gay rights activist organizations were formed, publications were founded promoting rights for gays and lesbians, and the movement spread across the U.S. and the world.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong>On June 28, 1970, the first gay pride marches took place commemorating the anniversary of the riots.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">There are many places in the world that embrace the movement.
