QueerAF | Inspiring LGBTQIA+ stories told by emerging queer creatives
Health & Fitness:Sexuality
June 1969. New York City. It’s illegal to serve gays alcohol. It’s illegal for gays to dance with one another. Bars and clubs are routinely raided. Including the now infamous, Stonewall Inn. The riots that ensued over a week on Christopher Street ignited and catapulted forward the modern LGBT+ rights movement today.
But how much do you know about what happened that night? What does it mean for your queer people and their own activism today?
This week Sebastian Hendra from @HistoricalHomos joins us to tell the story of everything that happened not only on the night of the first riots, but the first year after the Stonewall Inn riots.Plus we are joined by host campus of #StudentPride – th University of Westminster's LGBTI society rep Nikki Hayden and Pride in London's Rhammel O'Dwyer Afflick to discuss what the events that fateful week mean to young LGBT+ people today.
