In den frühen Morgenstunden des 28. Juni 1969 leisteten queere Menschen, insbesondere BIPoC, trans Personen und Drag Queens Widerstand gegen eine Polizeirazzia in der Bar Stonewall Inn.
Was folgte, waren Tage des Protests, ein Aufschrei gegen Diskriminierung, Ausgrenzung und Polizeigewalt.
Ohne Stonewall gäbe es kein Pride, keine queere Sichtbarkeit, keine Bewegung wie wir sie heute kennen.

The Daily Show Chose Pittsburgh to Explore How Corporations Capitalize on Pride Month - Pittsburgh Lesbian Correspondents
This aired Tuesday night on Comedy Central. Trevor Noah sent correspondent (we love those!) Jaboukie Young-White to explore issues around corporatization of Pride and the LGBTQ community. I'm shaking my head about the Delta Foundation trying to spin this (and the interview) as anything but a condemnation of their activities. LOL. How could they not

Jon@DoomsdaysCW great article, thanks for sharing! Antoine Prince Albert III‘s “Hiding OUT: A Case for queer experiences informing data privacy laws” talks about notes that
“ Ms. Queen Swann’s life mirrors the injustices like governmental and corporate surveillance, politicized disdain, and violence that queer people still face in America, 170 years later. Yet, just as Ms. Queen Swann led protests and legal challenges against queerphobia in the 19th century, her experience can even now inform how we write our first comprehensive federal consumer privacy law. ”

DoomsdaysCWThe First Self-Proclaimed Drag Queen Was a Formerly Enslaved Man
In the late 19th century, William Dorsey Swann’s private balls attracted unwelcome attention from authorities and the press
by Cari Shane, June 9, 2023
"In the late 1880s, a formerly enslaved man named William Dorsey Swann started hosting private balls known as #drags, a name possibly derived from 'grand rag,' an antiquated term for masquerade balls. Held in secret in Washington, D.C., these parties soon caught authorities’ attention.
"As the Washington Critic reported in January 1887, police officers who raided one such gathering were surprised to encounter six Black men 'dressed in elegant female attire,' including 'corsets, bustles, long hose and slippers.' The following April, the Evening Star reported on a raid that targeted men in 'female attire of many colors,' as well as 'gaudy costumes of silk and satin.' On both occasions, authorities arrested the party guests and charged them with 'being suspicious characters.'
"Journalist and historian Channing Gerard Joseph first learned about Swann’s parties in 2005, when he was a graduate student browsing an online newspaper database. The article he came across, a Washington Post story from April 1888, spotlighted Swann, 'who was arrayed in a gorgeous dress of cream-colored satin.' He 'rushed toward the officers and tried to prevent their entering.'"
