The events also at times serve as demonstrations for legal rights such as same-sex marriage. Early on the morning of Saturday, 28 June 1969, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning persons rioted following a police raid on the Stonewall Inn in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of New York City. The Stonewall Inn was a gay bar which catered to an assortment of patrons, but which was popular with the most marginalized people in the gay community: transvestites, transgender people, effeminate young men, hustlers, and homeless youth. The Stonewall riots are generally considered to be the beginning of the modern gay rights movement, as it was the first time in modern history that a significant body of LGBT people resisted arrest. It all had started long ago in NY and still, it looks like not all the people are treated the same. guess it is not an easy life, but we all have to work together and make this world a better place for everyone. Different doesn’t always mean something bad. We have to learn to accept people the way they are.
