	Stonewall (movie review)
		The credits of Nigel Finch's Stonewall describe the film as a "fictionalization based on the book by Martin Duberman." This book was the first comprehensive history of the 1969 riots in Greenwich Village and of the events that led up to and followed them.
		Stonewall, the film, attempts to capture this blend of historical fact-finding, social analysis, and engaging narrative.
		Finally, it is unfortunate that a film that embraces many of the complexities and conflicts of gay male culture shies away from exploring the difficulties that gay men and lesbians, in fact, often have in forging social and political alliances.

	The Stonewall Riots, a turning point in gay history
		The myth that the Stonewall riots gave birth to the gay movement is an insult and a discredit to all the men and women who fought for our rights at a time when it was not fashionable - and was even dangerous - to do so.
		Stonewall was actually a culmination, a culmination of more than 100 years of organized gay rights activity in the western world.
		Stonewall management found it difficult to keep their customers inside Saturday night, since all the action was outside.

	Stonewall Inn Raid -- New York Daily News 6/6/69
		According to reports, the Stonewall Inn, a two-story structure with a sand painted brick and opaque glass facade, was a mecca for the homosexual element in the village who wanted nothing but a private little place where they could congregate, drink, dance and do whatever little girls do when they get together.
		Inside, the Stonewall bathed in wild, bright psychedelic lights, while the patrons writhed to the sounds of a juke box on a square dance floor surrounded by booths and tables.
		She later confessed that she didn't protest the manhandling by the officer, it was just that her hair was in curlers and she was afraid her new beau might be in the crowd and spot her.

		STONEWALL follows the lives of a half-dozen gay New Yorkers in the weeks leading up to the Stonewall riots while examining police harassment, Mafia control of gay bars, and the general oppression and homophobia faced by gay men and women in the days before the Stonewall Riots launched the Gay Rights Movement in earnest.

		And the actual flash point for the rioters was not Judy Garland's death, as popularly theorized, but the fact that the police came for the second time in a week to raid the bar.
		The new photo of the Stonewall was taken in June 1999.

		The sense of anger that underlay the riots, the discovery that strength in numbers could match and even defeat the police, and the realization that members of the glbtq community did not have to tolerate meekly the customary bullying and harassment at the hands of the authorities, quickly led to politicization.
		Radical and leftist in orientation, the GLF was but one of many politically focused lesbian and gay organizations that formed in the wake of the riots, both in the United States and around the world.
		While the political and communal effects of the Stonewall Riots are real enough, what actually occurred in those early morning hours has become the stuff of legend.

		The Stonewall was known for serving underage kids as well as catering to people who were pot- and acid-dealing hustlers.
		The well-known turncoat FBI informant, Ed Murphy, was found to be one of the baddest of the bad, a Stonewall Inn insider, one who was possibly behind the flmailing of Wall St. employees, a suspected kidnapper and murderer; one who even wanted the credit for having made the riots happen.
		Meanwhile, Stonewall customers were unaware of what the police knew, and they flocked to the place — paying for watered-down and overpriced drinks — in order to have a place to dance and meet friends, something impossible in heterosexual places.

		The Stonewall Inn attracted an eclectic crowd, from teenage college students like Morty Manford to conservatively dressed young men who stopped in with their dates after the theater or opera.
		The Stonewall Inn was not a generally welcoming place for drag queens, although as Martin Duberman notes, “...a few favored full-time transvestites, like Tiffany, Spanola Jerry, a hairdresser from Sheepshead Bay, and Tammy Novak...
		Lucian Truscott IV, who was also at the Stonewall that night reporting for the Village Voice, wrote that the scene was initially festive: “Cheers would go up as favorites would emerge from the door, strike a pose, and swish by the detective with a 'Hello there, fella.' The stars were in their element.

		The word 'Stonewall' has entered the vocabulary of lesbians, gay men, bisexuals and transgendered people everywhere as a potent emblem of the gay community making a stand against oppression and demanding full equality in every area of life.
		And a prominent gay rights group in Britain passes under the name Stonewall, although its strategy of backroom lobbying and deals with the New Labour government is far removed from the heroic spirit of resistance shown on Christopher Street in June 1969.

		Since it was re-opened as a bar in 1989, it seems that Stonewall has attracted a different sort of clientele, and as always with America, it is race much more than class that is the great divider.
