Throughout Pride Month, explore the 50 Years: The Stonewall Uprising exhibit on display at the Leon County Main Library. The June 1969 riots at the Stonewall Inn in New York’s Greenwich Village are generally cited as the starting point of the LGBTQ rights movement, but the facts are considerably more nuanced and even disputed. This exhibit from the Stonewall National Museum, Archives & Library examines the who, what, and where of those June nights to understand why the Stonewall riots became the catalytic movement in the effort to secure equal rights for LGBTQ Americans.

This exhibit will be on display on the 2nd floor of the Main Library from June 1-30, 2024.
