Date June 28, 2009

The Stonewall Riots started in the early morning hours of June 28, 1969. Riots that brought to light a new resistance to police brutality against gay people. Riots that sparked a movement to bring freedom and justice to a small but vibrant community so that subsequent generations of gay people would find a better, safer, more honest and decent place for ourselves to live. Forty years later and we’re still trucking, and not only are we not going away, we’re going to keep moving forward.

Be sure to check out this fantastic post from Joe.My.God. and give a salute to the folks who started us down the road we’re on.

Just gay it!
