Abstract:
A social history of homosexuality in America from the 1920s to 1969, showing how this group has moved from a secret shame to the status of a publicly viable minority group. Traces the beginning of the Gay Liberation Movement from a 1969 police raid on Stonewall Inn, a gay bar in New York City, and the three-day riot that followed.
