On this day 50 years ago, an uprising took place at the Stonewall Inn in New York City. As it was raided by the police in the early hours, three nights of unrest followed, with LGBT people, long frustrated by police brutality, finally fighting back.
The Stonewall Riots anniversary in 2025 will be on June 28. The event honours the courage of those who fought for their rights, and serves as a reminder of the progress made and work that remains to be done in the fight for LGBTQ rights.
