"You had straight people sympathetic to gays. People of the arts. You had people who had had enough (of the police). You had Latinos, you had blacks, you had whites, Chinese, you had everything. It was a melting pot. Young, old. Fems, butches."

The impulse for gays to fight for equal rights in American society had been strong but latent; the Stonewall rebellion was a catalyst that created an immediate and extensive response.

The Stonewall was an unhygienic Mafia bar that profited on our oppression. No matter, it was one of the first times we didn't run away from the cops.

First came the Gay Liberation Front, which would be followed by the more active and successful Gay Activist Alliance.

LGBT+ groups formed
The Stonewall riots inspired the LGBTQ+ community to come together and create organizations to fight for their rights.

Today, we can trace the LBGT political movement in the U.S. back to that one night.

# data[].attributes.body
A new minority came together in the weeks that followed, and out of that arose an active political movement.

We figured that it was the usual "clean up" by the vice squad. You know, the cops would go into a bar and take people out in a paddy wagon. Back at the police station they would call up their lawyer buddies to come arrange bail. A corrupt system was in place. It was a real racket.

We saw the police go in and then we saw the police come flying out again, being pushed out by the people inside the bar. It was at night, and that area was tree-lined and badly lit, so we couldn't actually see who was fighting the police. All we could make out were figures; it wasn't clear if they were guys or transgender people. But right away we knew that they weren't being docilely rounded up as usual. They were fighting and screaming, and then more and more people started coming out of the bar. We got out of there in time to see some guys trying to tip over a Volkswagen that was parked on the street.

there were wooden police horses set up and police paddy wagons and police cars... Avenue, where the Women's House of Detention was. Word must have reached them too, because the noise coming out of there was incredible and it was clear that they were rioting too.

Sheridan Square was mobbed with people and police in riot gear. It was very noisy and chaotic, and I could only get to see from the outer fringes of the crowd.

We were angry because earlier in the 1960s Mayor Wagner had constantly raided gay bars in an effort to "clean up" the city for the World's Fair. But we thought those days were over...

"The queens have begun revolting. And they aren't going to stop now."  Douglas Brasiers...

Before that, we had been trying to organize women at the bars. We were what people later called the "Lavender Menace" of the women's movement. But a lot of gay and lesbian people even in the Village were content with their duplicitous lives. They'd made their peace with that. But once the Stonewall riots happened, people sort of woke up, including women.

What changed that night was that gays, who'd long thought of themselves as a sin, a crime, or an illness, suddenly saw themselves as a minority.

We went down there the next day and people were protesting as close as they could get to the bar, which was still blocked off, so they were out in the streets off Seventh Avenue and at the subway station exits, handing out flyers that read "We're not going to take it anymore!" Monday evening there were a half dozen guys at each of the four station exits walking around with posters and megaphones, shouting "What Do We Want?" To which people would answer: "Gay Rights." Megaphones: "When do we want them?" Crowd: "Now!"

Sheridan Square was transformed and almost unrecognizable. There were large black NYPD buses all around the square blocking it off from other streets. There were wooden horses set up inside the park itself like a maze. You couldn't see the Stonewall at all. There were wood panels over the window and doors. The place was filled with policemen and firemen in full gear. Everywhere you stepped there were big black fire hoses snaking along the ground. There was a Volkswagen knocked over onto its back. A taxicab was halfway up a fireplug. It had knocked the cap off and water was gushing twenty feet into the air.

Michael Fader, a club patron, was present that night and later recalled, "We felt that we had freedom at last, or freedom to at least show that we demanded freedom. We weren't going to be walking meekly in the night and letting them shove us around-it's like standing your ground for the first time and in a really strong way, and that's what caught the police by surprise. There was something in the air, freedom a long time overdue, and we we're going to fight for it. It took different forms, but the bottom line was we weren't going to go away. And we didn't."One year after the riots, thousands from the LGBT community gathered to participate in the very first "Pride" parade, commemorating that eventful night. In the years that followed, more cities opened their streets and allowed LGBT people to march proudly and openly to defend their rights in the fight to be equal citizens.

How (or just "did") did the Stonewall riots shape the modern-day LGBTQ+ movement? Did it have a lasting impact?

# data[].attributes.body
The Stonewall riots, one of the most important events in LGBTQ+ history, inspired the first LGBTQ+ organizations and the LGBTQ+ rights movement.

# data[].attributes.body
Stonewall wasn't the first time that LGBTQ+ people fought back, but it was the first one to have a lasting impact.

"there were riots before then so Stonewall is not a big deal"

# data[].attributes.body
Stonewall is important, but most people do not know about it. It is not taught about in schools. Stonewall kickstarted the LGBTQ+ movement, but the people are not given proper credit for their brave acts. Racism and transphobia run rampant in the LGBTQ+ community, even though trans women of color and people of color were the majority of the people rioting at Stonewall.

Most of the white LGBTQ+ community does not know that LGBTQ+ people of color were the ones who started the movement for equal rights. It is time that people recognize the large impact that Stonewall had on the world. People are still feeling the affects of the riots, but do not recognize it.

# data[].attributes.body
Stonewall ignited the spark that was lying dormant in the LGBTQ+ community, the urge to fight back in an organized and big way.

Ignited spark to fight for rights. LGBT+ people treated unfairly, gay bars raided, corrupt system. united community. before riots- peaceful stuff, can't anger people. after riots- give us our fucking rights right now

# data[].attributes.body
Before Stonewall, the LGBTQ+ rights movement of today didn't exist. People fought back against inequality, but didn't successfully organize. Many LGBTQ+ organizations were formed after the riots.

# data[].attributes.body
The Stonewall riots started the modern-day LGBTQ+ movement?
The Stonewall riots was a very important event in LGBTQ+ history, the uprising kickstarted the modern-day LGBTQ+ rights movement. Stonewall ignited the spark that was lying dormant in the LGBTQ+ community, the urge to fight back in an organized and big way.
