Stonewall Anniversary

June 28, 2021

I guess I’m a traditionalist.  I believe that if you start to move the date around then soon you’ll forget the significance of the event.

The Stonewall Riots history is also my history.  I was eighteen when I came out to my mom after reading about the riots in the Wichita Eagle.  I wanted to be a part of that history, to go and join our brothers, and sisters, in NYC.  That’s when I began writing to the GLF, Gay Liberation Front.  What can I say?  I’m still a radical at heart, just not as fast any more:  www.nyclgbtsites.org/site/gay-liberation-front-at-alternate-u.   GLF25 John O’Brien: www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6P8-tlvkDA.  And Stonewall Riots History: I was at the protest in June, 1969: www.youtube.com/watch?v=es7aUz5YQv0.
