  • An Amazing 1969 Account of the Stonewall Uprising
    An Amazing 1969 Account of the Stonewall Uprising GARANCE FRANKE- RUTA THE ATLANTIC JAN 24, 2013 Despite progress, the circumstances that gave rise to the rebellion that began the contemporary gay rights movement haven't changed as much as we might think. When President Obama briefly mentioned Stonewall during his Inaugural address, it prompted a lot of chatter about of the Stonewall riot and his historic adoption of the gay rights cause as his own. But what happened at the Stonewall Inn, really? New York papers tend to call it the Stonewall uprising, not the Stonewall riot, because it played out as six days of skirmishes between young gay, lesbian, and transgender individuals and the New York Police Department in the wake of a police raid of the Christopher Street bar in Manhattan's West Village. The raid came amid a broader police crackdown on gay bars for operating without N. Y. State Liquor Authority licenses, which was something they did only because the SLA refused to grant bars that served gays licenses, forcing them to operate as illegal saloons. Into that void stepped opportunists and Mafia affiliates, who ran the unlicensed establishments and reputedly had deals with the police to stay in business. But on the night of June 27, 1969, a police raid on the Stonewall involving the arrests of 13 people inside the bar met unexpected resistance when a crowd gathered and one of those arrested, a woman, cried out to the assembled bystanders as she was shoved into a paddy wagon, "Why don't you guys do something!" The conflict over the next six days played out as a very gay variant of a classic New York street rebellion.

  • When Did You Become Gay?
    1 | AN INTRODUCTION TO WHAT I HEAR WHEN YOU SAY Deeply ingrained in human nature is a tendency to organize, classify, and categorize our complex world. Often, this is a good thing. This ability helps us make sense of our environment and navigate unfamiliar landscapes while keeping us from being overwhelmed by the constant stream of new information and experiences. When we apply this same impulse to social interactions, however, it can be, at best, reductive and, at worst, dangerous. Seeing each other through the lens of labels and stereotypes prevents us from making authentic connections and understanding each other’s experiences. Through the initiative, What I Hear When You Say ( WIHWYS ), we explore how words can both divide and unite us and learn more about the complex and everchanging ways that language shapes our expectations, opportunities, and social privilege. WIHWYS ’s interactive multimedia resources challenge what we think we know about race, class, gender, and identity, and provide a dynamic digital space where we can raise difficult questions, discuss new ideas, and share fresh perspectives. 1 | Introduction WHEN DID YOU BECOME GAY? if you don’t have an answer it doesn’t make you any less gay, it doesn’t make you any less queer or less trans be- “ cause we’re all evolving and we all change, and we don’t have this one day on our calendar where we suddenly understood everything.

    AMULET BOOKS TEACHING GUIDE OVERVIEW The Stonewall Riots: Coming Out in the Streets highlights the objects, places, and people influential to one of the most impactful moments in the LGBTQ+ rights movement in the United States. This guide is meant to support students in understanding the complexities of historical injustice, resistance, and community activism as related to the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer/Questioning uprising on June 28 and 29, 1969.

Hudson Rising, on view in our Robert H. and Clarice Smith Gallery, explores two centuries of change along “the most interesting river in America.” Stonewall 50, presented in our Pam and Scott Schafler Gallery, commemorates the 50th anniversary of the 1969 Stonewall uprising with a focus on LGBTQ culture. Augusta Savage: Renaissance Woman, presented in our Luman Reed Galleries, showcases the work of an artist of the Harlem Renaissance who overcame poverty, racism, and sexual discrimination to become one of the nation’s most influential 20th-century artists. We are proud to feature Stonewall 50 and Augusta Savage as part of our ongoing examination of the history of civil rights in America, an initiative generously funded by the New York City Council as well as Empire State Development and the New York State Council on the Arts under Governor Andrew Cuomo’s Regional Economic Development Council Initiative. This season’s Bernard and Irene Schwartz Distinguished Speakers Series will reflect many of the topics and themes raised by our exhibitions, with conversations between U.S. Senator Doug Jones and Eddie Glaude Jr. on Senator Jones’ prosecution of two former Ku Klux Klan members; legal scholars Kenji Yoshino and Linda Greenhouse on how LGBTQ rights have evolved in the 50 years since the Stonewall uprising; and New-York Historical Presidential historian Douglas Brinkley and author John A.

Announcer: Major funding for BackStory is provided by an anonymous donor, the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Joseph and Robert Cornell Memorial Foundation. Speaker 2: From Virginia Humanities, this is BackStory. Nathan: We're going to start today's show in the wee hours of the 28th of June 1969 with a police raid on a gay bar. A raid which would set off an earthquake that is still being registered today. Lillian F.: From all accounts it was a shabby place with watered down drinks, much too expensive. But I think that gay men, in particular, and a few lesbians, loved the place because of the dance floor, which I have heard from a number of people who habituated the place that it was the best dance floor in all of New York for gay people. Nathan: That's the LGBTQ scholar, Lillian Faderman. The name of the bar she's describing has entered the iconography of gay life. Lillian F.: Officially, it wasn't even a bar. They did not have a liquor license. It was supposed to be a private club and when you came you were supposed to sign in. People signed in with names such as Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse. And that was the way the mob supposedly got around getting a liquor license. Nathan: Run by the mob, the shabby Stonewall Inn was about to become a flash point in the battle over gay rights. Speaker 2: Christopher Mitchell is researching New York City's queer economic and cultural history from the 1940s to the 1970s.
