Students talk to people who remember the 70s...Stonewall...

It's amateur and offers nothing that hasn't been said before.


Watch...

 

The(ir) Blurb...

Four young activists interview elder gay, lesbian and trans-gender activists who came out in the 1970s. They explore how the catalyst of the Stonewall riots enabled a new generation to come out and begin to organize, get visible and fight for rights. Elders interviewed talk about the early gay pride marches, the American Psychological Association's acceptance of gay people, Anita Bryant anti-gay crusade, the creation of Gay Community Centers, the Disco Era, Harvey Milk and the Gay Game.
