Description
The Stonewall Reader marks a pivotal moment in LGBTQ history, commemorating the 50th anniversary of the iconic uprising. This anthology brings together first accounts, diaries, and articles from the time to tell the story of the fight for gay liberation in the 1960s.
Featuring contributions from both prominent activists like Sylvia Rivera and lesser-known figures such as Ernestine Eckstein, this collection sheds light on the events leading up to and following the riots. Edited by Jason Baumann, the NYPL coordinator of humanities and LGBTQ collections, The Stonewall Reader offers a unique perspective on this pivotal moment in American history.
Published to coincide with an exhibition at the New York Public Library, this anthology provides a comprehensive look at the Stonewall uprising and its lasting impact. With its focus on the years surrounding 1969, The Stonewall Reader is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the roots of modern LGBTQ rights movements.
