The city of Raleigh, North Carolina held its first Gay Pride celebration on June 25, 1988. Photo from: Flickr/State Archives of North Carolina. On April 13, 1970, New York Mayor John Lindsay and his wife arrived at the Metropolitan Opera House. It was opening night of the season. The Republican mayor had no idea he was about to be ambushed by members of the newly formed Gay Activist Alliance (GAA). The protesters entered the event in tuxedos and shouted, "End Police Harassment!" and "Gay Power!" A year earlier, newspaper headlines were covering the Stonewall Riots. These riots happened between members of the gay community and police because of a raid at the Stonewall Inn. The Inn was a gay bar in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of Manhattan. For most of the 20th century, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender (LGBT) Americans were unwelcome in society. They were forced to hide their sexuality, and many laws prohibited their activities. In the 1970s things began to change. Employment Discrimination This article is available at 5 reading levels at https://newsela.com. Lindsay had refused to enact a citywide anti-discrimination law after the riots. During the next two years, gay rights activists confronted the mayor in public. In 1972 Lindsay finally relented. He signed an executive order to forbid discriminating against job candidates for city government jobs based on sexual orientation. For the next three decades the gay liberation movement continued to confront public figures.

  • Gay Democratic Socialist Disruption on Television In
    Gay Democratic Socialist Disruption on Television in 1971Finley FreiBert / University of Louisville – Flow 4/7/20, 10)05 AM Gay Democratic Socialist Disruption on Television in 1971Finley Freibert / University of Louisville April 6, 2020 Finley Freibert / Independent Scholar Leave a comment Gay disruption on Chicago TV, 1971 Consider the following quote: Because capitalism in America is proven to be exploitative on a vast and growing scale (the 1% of American families at the top get twice the income of all 20% at the bottom), I advocate making America socialist and redistributing the national wealth equitably. I advocate democratic socialism.[1] https://www.flowjournal.org/2020/04/gay-democratic-socialist-disruption-tv/ Page 1 of 9 Gay Democratic Socialist Disruption on Television in 1971Finley FreiBert / University of Louisville – Flow 4/7/20, 10)05 AM The quote seems contemporary.[2] It sounds like someone talking about current economic inequalities exacerbated by the Great Recession of 2007-2009 and continuing to spiral out of control. It uses “the 1%” in the sense that it was employed by the Occupy Wall Street movement of 2011. It identifies and condemns the grotesque consolidation of wealth by the few at the expense of the rest of us. It sounds like something Bernie Sanders would say. The quote is from a gay democratic socialist speaking nearly fifty years ago. It is representative of a gay democratic socialist branch of gay liberation that expanded across the US from 1969 to the mid-1970s. While the nuances of the definition of democratic socialism depend on the contexts of its use, its associated rhetoric and emphasis on egalitarianism—precisely antithetical to authoritarian socialism— remain strikingly constant.

  • Stonewall Riots 1 Stonewall Riots
    Stonewall riots 1 Stonewall riots The Stonewall riots were a series of spontaneous, violent demonstrations by members of the gay community[2] against a police raid that took place in the early morning hours of June 28, 1969, at the Stonewall Inn in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of New York City. They are widely considered to constitute the single most important event leading to the gay liberation movement and the modern fight for gay and lesbian rights in the United States. Gay Americans in the 1950s and 1960s faced a legal system more anti-homosexual than those of some Warsaw Pact countries.[3][4] Early homophile groups in the U.S. sought to prove that gay people could be assimilated into society, and they favored non-confrontational education for homosexuals and heterosexuals alike. The last years of the 1960s, however, were very contentious, as many social movements were active, including the African American Civil Rights Movement, the Counterculture of the 1960s, and antiwar demonstrations. These influences, along with the liberal environment of Greenwich Village, served as catalysts for the Stonewall riots. The Stonewall Inn, taken September 1969. The Very few establishments welcomed openly gay people in the 1950s sign in the window reads: "We homosexuals and 1960s. Those that did were often bars, although bar owners and plead with our people to please help maintain peaceful and quiet conduct on the streets of the managers were rarely gay. At the time, the Stonewall Inn was owned [1] Village—Mattachine". by the Mafia.[5] It catered to an assortment of patrons and was known to be popular among the poorest and most marginalized people in the gay community: drag queens, representatives of a newly self-aware transgender community, effeminate young men, male prostitutes, and homeless youth.
