Folks,
Fifty four years ago, the New York City Police Department raided Stonewall
Inn, a bar in the city’s Greenwich Village and safe haven for the LGBTQ
community.
Several brave Americans, led by Black and brown trans activists, fought
back against police violence and harassment. Demonstrations throughout the
city happened over the span of six days, kickstarting the modern LGBTQ
movement for equal rights.
Stonewall is a story of those who came before us and put everything on the
line in a demand to be treated with dignity and respect. Those who bravely
stood up and spoke out so that others wouldn’t have to live in fear or
silence.
Progress was made possible by the Black and brown trans activists who have
always been on the frontlines of the fight for LGBTQ rights. We must never
forget that.
I’m inspired by how far we’ve come in the past 54 years, but as
Republicans continue to attack LGBTQ rights — targeting and dehumanizing
trans kids, banning LGBTQ discussion in our schools, and even threatening
to overturn Supreme Court decisions that granted our right to marriage
equality — it’s clear there is so much more work to be done.
It’s going to take all of us to counter these right wing attacks so
everyone grows up knowing they belong.

As we celebrate the courage that took place 54 years ago, let us take the
next step forward in the march for justice and freedom for every LGBTQ
American.
We have real power because those who came before us refused to back down
and be silenced. Now, it’s our time to keep advocating for what’s right.
Onward.
