Stonewall and the LGBTQ rights movement

Nico Medina’s account places the Stonewall uprising in the context of LGBTQ rights history in the United States. It begins with the June 1969 police raid on the Stonewall Inn in New York City and describes the community’s resistance in the streets as a pivotal moment in a broader civil rights movement. The book connects a specific event and place to the wider struggle for equality, giving young readers a historical entry point into the movement’s origins.

Book overview

How did a spontaneous protest outside of a New York City bar fifty years ago spark a social movement across America? Find out about the history of LGBTQ rights in this Who HQ title.

In the early-morning hours of June 28, 1969, police arrived at the Stonewall Inn's doors and yelled, "Police! We're taking the place!" But the people in this New York City neighborhood bar, members of the LGBTQ community, were tired of being harassed. They rebelled in the streets, turning one moment into a civil rights movement and launching the fight for equality among LGBTQ people in the United States.
