What happened during the multi-night rebellion around the Stonewall Inn in June of 1969, the grassroots movement that sparked LGBTQ+ rights across the country? What was the first thing thrown and who threw it? Who took part and who stayed away? Hear the details of what occurred and how this ultimately led to the creation of Pride Month. Led by Milo Todd, a writer, editor, educator, and writing instructor. Author of the forthcoming novel, The Lilac People, his fiction focuses on trans and queer history.
