Marsha P. Johnson is such an iconic person in the movement and her role is usually erased from LGBT+ and feminist narratives due to her very open identity at the time. I love that her history is getting told more in the public eye instead of being brushed under the rug again.
Her role is erased because it was completely made up. You can literally listen to Marsha talk about how she didn't arrive at the riots until after it had started. Here, literally listen to Marsha: makinggayhistory.com/podcast/episode-11-johnson-wicker/
Su Aung I totally agree She’s also getting portrayed the wrong way so many times She’s said herself that she didn’t even arrive until 02:00 and she didn’t throw the first shot glass
White gay tops on their Gridnrs who say “masc for masc, no tops no fats no fems no Asians no blacks just a preference” don’t know shit about the history of the LGBT movement.
Marsha actually didn’t get in town until the riots had already started! So she technically didn’t throw the first glass/brick and nobody knows who did. However Marsha was a HUGE figure in the gay liberation movement and a very successful & famous performer. She is an incredible person and did so much for us, worship her!
The movie is inaccurate because the one who sparked the stonewall riots is a butch lesbian and she is half African American and half white. Rivera and Johnson both had an interview saying they were late in the stonewall riots. Google the history yourselves.
Nicole-Corine I know. I am trans myself. We should have people in the acting world of trans experience play trans characters like Sophia in OITB, Nomi from Sense 8, Buck from The OA, and Micheal from Rise (who is played by non binary person who a lines them self as trans masculine). Also they are bunch of trans characters on the Fosters who are played by trans people and Shameless too.
emerson: and on Transparent. The main character is a cis man playing a trans woman, but the other trans folk are played by trans folk. Also, in the movie "Trans-America" the main character is a cis woman playing a trans woman, but the other trans characters are played by trans characters. So, change is happening, if slower than one might like.
Somewhat. Two stories: either Stonewall was a black & Latino bar, or the night that Stonewall was raided, it was black & Latino night. Stonewall continues to be whitened with every story told.
Double Guitars I watched the old school documentaries "Before Stonewall" and "After Stonewall". That started the discussion for me years ago! But, if you go to www.dailydot.com, they have a list of 7 films that cover the stonewall rebellion. These will get you started, for sure. If you are interested in gay history in Hollywood, I recommend "The Celluloid Closet" film. Just say'n 😁

I read an article by a guy who was at the Stonewall bar that night. He said that it is silly to argue about who started it. It was a riot, not a choreographed play, and even the people who were there don't really know who threw the first thing. Marsha herself said that she didn't even get to that part of New York until after the riot was well in progress.

Johnson," but it's up to you if you wanna watch it, cause apparently that idea was colonized from Tourmaline, another Black transwoman.
This isn’t how it happened Marsha arrived at the Stonewall well after the disturbance (it wasn’t a riot) had started,no one really knows who kicked it off! Nor was it the first time American LGBTQI people had fought in the streets with the cops
Ale Andra but they should have put a disclaimer on it saying this is not accurate instead of presenting it as history. presenting this to a big audience those who don’t know better will think this is the truth.
Marsha P Johnson did NOT start the riots. She played a huge role in the aftermath, but didn't even get to the Stonewall Inn until the riots had already been going on for a few hours. It was the violent arrest of Storme DeLarverie, a butch lesbian, that incited the action. The whole "shotglass head around the world" is very cinematic, but isn't historically accurate.
I watched the Netflix documentary the Death and Life of Marsha P Johnson last year, which was amazin. I'm glad Drunk History highlighted her. Well done Derek!
No mention of Storme DeLarverie? Anyone reading this look her up. She threw the first punch at stonewall and is considered the one who sparked the riot. I loved this video though thank u
Check out “The Stonewall You know is a Myth. And that’s ok” I love Drunk history but they didn’t do their homework because this is riddled with inaccuracies... Maybe the alcohol? Lol For instance as lovely as she was, Marsha didn’t even arrive until the fire had started long after the initial raid.. Watch that video if you want to hear eyewitness accounts from men & women who were there, historians as well as taped statements from Marsha & Sylvia. I’ll still keep watching Drunk History though! 😉

So I guess everyone is just going to ignore her own words when she said she was late and the riots had already started by time she got there? I’m pretty sure Johnson did not throw the first stone.
I'm really proud of Comedy Central for casting actual trans people in their video to portray the historic trans people. They did this before with their A.D.A. video and disabled people. It's a good move.
Marsha didn’t start the riots actually from what I know. The shot glass thing wasn’t her. She led the movement and the riots when she got there but historians think she got to the Stonewall Inn right after the riots started
Marsha didn't throw the first stone lol. she has said this herself in an interview. she says she didn't get there until 2 when the place was already on fire
this drunk history episode is cute and all but it's wrong cos marsha herself admitted that she showed up to stonewall that night AFTER the riot started. she said she showed up around 1am and the riot was already in full swing by then. so this is literally a false account of what happened.
also sylvia rivera wasn't anywhere near the stonewall inn on the night of the initial riot (because the stonewall riots weren't just a one time thing, they lasted for multiple days/nights). she showed up on another night. this, too, was confirmed by marsha p johnson herself a couple days before her death. PLEASE do an accurate retelling of lgbt history instead of just going on revisionist history and hearsay.

Not from a trans woman
I could swear I watched this a year or so ago.
I did. www.cc.com/video-clips/98p5r3/drunk-history-marsha-p--johnson-sparks-the-stonewall-riots
It's been re uploaded (or whatever) for Pride month 😊🌈
Recommendations really coming in clutch
this is awful i can't believe the misinfo is so strong that an entire drunk history ep got made about this. MARSHA WASNT THERE.
She was there at the riots, she just didn’t get in town until it was already happening. So she wasn’t there at the beginning but she did participate
@@cc-gx8hr Marsha also was a gay man, not a transwoman
This is one of the best ones
Good on Drunk History for actually hiring a trans woman (Alexandra Grey) to play a trans woman.
Marsha didn't throw the first stone lol. she has said this herself in an interview. she says she didn't get there until 2 when the place was already on fire
So glad that you all aren’t afraid to do episodes like this. Might be my new favorite.
Her cup is almost empty at 2:14 and then refills at 2:16
Love that they included Sylvia Rivera
Her laugh is absolutely wonderful
He always be fallin in love with the black girls lol
watching this in june 2020 ... it still feels correct
this drunk history episode is cute and all but it's wrong cos marsha herself admitted that she showed up to stonewall that night AFTER the riot started. she said she showed up around 1am and the riot was already in full swing by then. so this is literally a false account of what happened.
also sylvia rivera wasn't anywhere near the stonewall inn on the night of the initial riot (because the stonewall riots weren't just a one time thing, they lasted for multiple days/nights). she showed up on another night. this, too, was confirmed by marsha p johnson herself a couple days before her death. PLEASE do an accurate retelling of lgbt history instead of just going on revisionist history and hearsay.
"it's the shot glass heard around the world" lol
hell yeah! i’m glad drunk history is covering this
I'm going to need this woman to recount every major event ever while intoxicated, thanks luv
