This title provides a detailed and authoritative overview of the Stonewall Riots, beginning with the June 28, 1969, raid on a popular gay bar by New York City police that launched a six-day series of violent protests and inspired the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) ) civil rights movement in the United States. The volume is organized into three distinct sections-Narrative Overview, Biographies, and Primary Sources-which offer a one-stop resource for student research.
