      They might silence your teachers, but as long as the internet is open, you can always reach out. We will always be ready to give you all the intellectual tools you need.

      The purpose of schoolteaching is not actually to teach lgbtq history, political history science math or anything else. The only function of a schoolteacher is to make himself redundant.
      His purpose is solely to teach children not his subject, but *how to learn* his subject, so that by the time children leave school they can learn stuff for themselves, and make decisions about things like gay rights for themselves.

    What a wonderful account of those who were part of the Stonewall Uprising.I attended the Gay Pride Parade in 1999 on the 30th anniversary of the uprising. and watched the parade standing in front of the Stonewall. I was glad to see the bar restored and made sure I went inside to have a drink. I felt the aura of the history that occurred within those walls in 2009. I;m glad that it's now a National Monument. The same think should happen in San Francisco at the site of Harvey Milk's csmera shop in the Castro. i'm glad to see that there are young people ready to take up the struggle for the trans persons and others who are discriminated against. Go Pride !

      At best, only 1 of the people in this video "were part of the Stonewall uprising." And it's not even clear where he was or what he was doing.

    This is such a beautiful and important video. The lived experiences of those who lived through the uprising and the AIDS epidemic are wisdoms that younger LGBTQ+ generations need to digest, uphold, and protect. Immense kudos to NYU for not only keeping this history alive, but not being intimidated to highlight it.

      The sad irony of this comment is that around the time that it was posted a Stonewall VET was assaulted at a pride event. His sign was stolen and he was knocked to the ground by a bunch of 'trans kids'.
      THIS is the respect the elders are being shown by the new emboldened youth.
      Assaulting the very people that fought for the right to be Gay Lesbian Bisexual Trans Queer and more!!!
      The current LGBTQIA+ Community should be ashamed of themselves and I pray that the TRUTH WILL OUT in the end 😢

      @jasonthewatchmansson8873 7 місяців тому +1

      lol. Did you even watch the video? None of these people "lived through the uprising." Most were nowhere near the event. Only one guy might have been there, although he seems vague on exactly where he was, and there's no mention of him in David Carter's extensive historical treatment of the riot.

    I think when general, not LGBT people think of LGBT people, they think of drag queens and pride parades, and gay couples. But what they never hear about, what I never heard about until recently, is that the path to where we are today was paved in blood. It was paved in suffering, and pain, and homelessness, and social ostricisation, and anger and fear. And I think we need to talk more about what the community had to go through to get here for people to truly understand the weight of what sexual identity and gender identity truly means, why it's important, and therefore drive home why these human rights need to be protected.

    I came out as bisexual at age 31 before I had a feeling I was but I didn't want to admit it. I was worried about the reaction i,d get living in the south. I came up to mn in 2008 to be with my current relationship. In 2011 I finally got to say I'm bisexual and feel comfortable with it.

    I'm glad we got to hear from some brown and black people towards the end, but it would have been nice to hear a first-hand account from a black or brown person.
    Before you discredit my valid concern as merely a complaint, compare how much time each white person got to speak with how much time each brown and black person got to speak.

      "The majority of people at Stonewall were either drag queens or gay men of color," Titus Montalvo, a hairdresser and makeup artist who was 16 at the time."

      @R Berg Get out of here with your whitewashing and like Wayne said above " white savior complex." There's no doubt tons of white people were activists for AIDS. (NO ONE IS ARGUING AGAINST THAT.) We're talking about the Stonewall Riots, which was fought prominently by trans people and gays of color. Take your misogynistic, transphobic, white-supremacist a$$ and try to sling your revisionist $hit somewhere else.

    My sister in law wasn’t allowed to be with her girlfriend of years because as nurses they would be fired. In Florida they had to separate. They had to decide between working and income and they had kids so they had to make a decision. At work everyone knew them and everybody was nice. It eventually split them up and it’s horrible when you have to hide

    I attended NYU in 1971. I took German for my language. The professor, whose name slips my mind, held a Xmas party at his apartment near campus. German majors & other professors where there. Some freshmen were asked to pick records for a turntable in the next room.
    Between the records were a few gay porno mags..
    I dropped out the next semester. My own sexuality was just one of various factors.
    I soon learned that some professors found new posts elsewhere. This I learn, meeting a professor at a gay bar. He was then teaching for City of New York University at Queens College.
    About this same time, there was a major construction for Gothe House at NYU.
    When I applied to return to NYU a decade later, I was asked why I left. I admitted to my sexual confusion at that time & that I was gay.
    The interviewer said it would be best not to discuss that topic on campus.
