Stonewall Inn - Site of the 1969 Uprising
By Seeker
The Stonewall Inn on Christopher Street was the locus of the June 1969 Stonewall uprising, widely regarded as a catalyst for the modern LGBTQ rights movement. Activists and patrons, including figures often identified as Marsha P. Johnson and Stormé DeLarverie, are associated with the events; historians debate the precise roles individuals played during the unrest. The site is a designated National Historic Landmark and remains a focal point for Pride commemorations and LGBTQ history interpretation.
