Imagine how annoying it must be to have like been in comptons and then for the next 5 decades just hear abt stonewall over and over again
Context for this: the Compton’s Cafeteria Riot occurred in 1966 in San Francisco, a few years before Stonewall. It was a response to police crackdowns and raids on the cafeteria, which was a known congregating site for gay/trans people. The majority of the protesters/customers were trans, particularly trans women, who fought back against the police. According to Wikipedia, it’s one of the earliest recorded instances of pro-trans activism in San Francisco.
LGBT history does not start and end in New York, or with Stonewall.
