Fuck! Like T didn't already have it tough enough getting recognition from L and G, not to mention B getting something from W

He also didn't throw a brick. He signed the world's first petition.

Wasn’t it Lily Tomlin that said Before Stonewall, we were all just shy, not gay. Or something like that.

As in the Stonewall 2015 trailer? Kill James Bond definitely should critique that movie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGEJmPwB4yI

Folk singer Dave Van Ronk didn't throw the first brick at Stonewall, but he saw people throwing bricks at cops and decided to join in because fuck the police. These are the kind of allies we need. https://www.villagepreservation.org/2022/06/13/dave-van-ronk-ally-at-the-stonewall-uprising/
