Re: Riots in Stonewall, NY
Simple question and I’m not sure to whom or where it should be posted, so I thought this might be the best starting point. This page is extremely well written and meticulous in documenting nearly every civil unrest and domestic violence riot event during the past 150-180 years of the history of the United States. However, I see nothing about the Stonewall riots that occurred June 28 - July 3, 1969 in Greenwich Village of Manhattan, New York. According to Wikipedia‘s own entry, the Stonewall Riots were part of the LGBT’s community first response to be part of the Civil Rights Laws that we’re eventually later passed to include “NONDISCRIMINATION AGAINST SEX, AS WELL AS SEXUAL ORIENTATION.” This same law later was amended to include “NONDISCRIMINATION against Disabled Persons or Persons with Disabilities.”

To quote Wikipedia’s entry:

The Stonewall riots (also referred to as the Stonewall uprising or the Stonewall rebellion) were a series of spontaneous demonstrations by members of the gay (LGBT) community in response to a police raid that began in the early morning hours of June 28, 1969, at the Stonewall Inn in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City. Patrons of the Stonewall, other Village lesbian and gay bars, and neighborhood street people fought back when the police became violent. The riots are widely considered to constitute one of the most important events leading to the gay liberation movementand the twentieth century fight for LGBT rights in the United States.

These were indeed “RIOTS”, as we’ve seen today in 2020, and in the past in 2014 in Ferguson, Missouri 10 days of riots take place August 9-19, 2014, after a white officer kills an unarmed black teenager, Michael Brown. Even larger riots erupt in Los Angeles April 30 to May 1, 1992 1992 in  with a toll of at least 59 dead and more than 2,300 injured. The violence was set off by the acquittal of four white police officers who were filmed beating up a black motorist, Rodney King. And let us not forget the UNPRECEDENTED and one of the most HISTORICALLY FAMOUS riots in modern history, the WATTS Riots in Los Angeles which took place August 11-17, 1965. These riots were precipitated by 2 white California Highway Patrol officers making a traffic stop on 2 black men on suspicion of driving while intoxicated in the Watts neighborhood. The event ended with 3,438 people arrested and left 34 dead and tens of millions of dollars' worth of damage and had little significant impact on improving the lives of the black community.

ALL OF THESE RIOTS WERE QUOTED FROM WIKIPEDIA, and the word “RIOT” was used as main descriptor for each separate event. YET THE STONEWALL RIOTS ARE NOT LISTED UNDER THE LINEAGE OF RIOTS IN WIKIPEDIA! This isn’t just wrong, it’s an egregious and flagrant wrong that needs to be corrected. These Riots in Stonewall were the response not just to some beatings that occurred that day, but decades even hundreds of years of men and women being abused, beaten, wrongfully imprisoned, socially outcast, sexual assault, and yes even forced servitude just like everything that happened to the of people in the racially motivated riots over the past 150+ years in the USA. Having said this, just who is responsible for editing this page and inserting this historically necessary event on this page? 2603:8001:8203:566F:5478:ECF1:1E81:4B4C (talk) 12:52, 31 January 2021 (UTC)
