This Day in History: , The Stonewall
Riots Begin.
June 28, 1969.
The riots are considered the
first major protest of the
LGBTQ community for equal rights.
They began after midnight
at the Stonewall Inn on

Police raided the popular gay club for
operating without a liquor license.
After decades of being

Several days of protests

Gay Liberation Front and other
gay civil rights organizations.
The NYPD made a formal

riots — and for the laws
that led to them — in 2019
