In 1969, there was the infamous riot that kicked off the fight for gay rights. In 2016, the Stonewall Inn was declared a National Monument. But Stonewall was not the first, nor the only, riot for gay rights. Nearly lost to history, overshadowed or under reported, the fight raged just under the surface, boiling up at these key moments that led to the Stonewall Riot. Pride originated not from one brick, not from one riot, not from one person. Pride comes from a long history of struggle— and here we talk about just a few instances of what has slipped under the radar.
