Welcome to Tuesday, June 27th, dandelions and sunflowers...
Today is the 54th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots, a watershed moment for LGBTQIA+ rights in America and around the world.
On June 28, 1969, police raided the Stonewall Inn, a gay bar in Greenwich Village. The protest continued over six days as LGBTQIA+ individuals demanded a safe establishment to exist and express themselves without fear of arrest.Â
These riots marked the beginning of the LGBTQIA+ liberation movement in America.
Will you celebrate the legacy of the Stonewall Riots?
