Description:
|
In the early morning hours of June 28,
1969 police raided the Stonewall Inn,
a popular gay bar in the Greenwich
Village section of New York City. That
night the street erupted into protests
and street demonstrations that lasted
for the next three days. The Stonewall
riots marked a major turning point in
the modern gay civil rights movement
in the United States and around the
world (PBS, 90 mins).
