The Stonewall Inn tavern in New York City's Greenwich Village was the site of several nights of violent protests following a police raid committed on June 28, 1969, for no other reason than that it was a queer bar. Although not the nation's first gay-rights demonstration, Stonewall is now regarded as the birth of the modern GLBT movement.

The Stonewall Inn, a gay bar in the late 1960s on Christopher Street, Greenwich Village, New York, which was raided by police on the night of June 28th, 1969. The queers in the bar (mostly butches, femmes, leathermen, leatherdykes, and drag queens) fought back, trapping police inside, breaking windows, and setting fire to the bar. Rioting continued for five days. These riots are generally considered to be the birth of the gay pride movement, although there were groups before that, such as the Mattachine Society and the Daughters of Bilitis. (RS)
