In his article ‘Movements before Stonewall need to be remembered, too’, Adam Dupuis discusses the fact that while the Stonewall Uprising was an important event in LGBT history, the events before it should not be dismissed as lesser. The author emphasizes the Annual Reminders, seminal protests which took place in Philadelphia every Fourth of July from 1965 to 1969. Not only were the Annual Reminders the first sustained LGBT demonstrations, but they were the first gay rights protests to have members from multiple cities, with forty activists from Washington, D.C., New York, and Pennsylvania participating. However, these events were discontinued upon the occurrence of the Stonewall Riot in 1969, when the organizers of the Reminders made the decision
The case is about the right to be left alone, rather than the right to take part in sexual activity with someone of the same gender. Blackmun states that the case should be looked at through a lens that focuses on the principles that our founded under the right to privacy in the constitution (pp.507). There is not enough reason or grounds on the side of the majority to violate the basic rights to privacy. It is also not enough to claim that sexual acts of homosexuals is immoral to Judeo-Christians and has been for many years; because it may be immoral to certain religious groups but should not be illegal to all citizens

“A group of people decided they’d had enough. They took a stand and in doing so began the New York Gay Activist movement. Which eventually spread to other parts of the country…. I very much doubt they know the impact of their decision to stand firm that day in 1969, but it’s because of those people that gay rights exist in this country today,” Lynley Wayne, LGBT Writer. Everyday people are trying to stand up for themselves.
I have seen many articles and done research on these topics and this is what I have concluded: everyone is equal. I may not personally be a part of the LGBTQ+ community or be a part of any cultural community or race, but I do believe that all feelings of an individual are valid. They are worthy of being and feeling any way they know in their hearts is right, regardless of what gender they are or the colour of their skin. But when we have leaders of countries trying to ban individuals from a place that is famously known as ‘the land of the free’, I become very uneasy about the future of this world. Humans has stooped so low that we cannot see past religious differences because of mistakes that some individuals once made a long-time age.
The Vietnam War was one of the longest, and the most costly war in America 's history. Vietnam War was primarily fought in Vietnam from 1959 to 1975 and never reaches United States shores. This disastrous war was fought between North Vietnamese and it allies Viet Cong against the United States of America and the South Vietnamese army. As most war are known to me bloody and cruel, The Vietnam War was especially cruel and devastating, it took the lives of millions of Vietnamese civilians. Civilians who will never get to see their country united under one banner, and unfortunately thousands of Americans solider lives were regrettably taken because of the war, names of those solider are forever written on the Vietnam Veteran’s Memorial Wall, a permanent
Fairtyington has a different perspective than someone who is not gay. Being gay gives her insight and she can talk from experience instead of watching someone or researching someone else’s work.

During California’s Gold Rush of 1849, people traveled from across the United States, Europe, Africa, Asia, and South America, in hopes of getting in on the action. At the time, essentially only white men were allowed to mine – no women, immigrants, or even Native Americans. In turn, this injustice practice caused discrimination and although this was not the beginning of discrimination against races or sexes, it further prolonged it. Women during the Gold Rush weren’t seen much in the scene because in this time period, women were still viewed as housewives more than anything else. But, during the Gold Rush, women were also seen giving sexual pleasures to the men that outnumbered them in the beginning.
1) The rights of LGBTQ (Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Queer) citizens are a must, and it 's our responsibility to be on the right side of history. Even though gay marriage is legalized, there is still a long way to go with LGBT rights and State and Federal Law. 2) Discriminating against anybody based on their lifestyle is a violation of human rights, and protection of human rights is the soul of a healthy democracy. 3) We should help build hope and start to create a world where everyone can live without the constant fear of being discriminated based on who they are and who they love. 4) Powerful lessons we have learned from past human right movements is that the battles we fought were painful and tough, but in the end they brought sweeping changes in American society by making it more caring and just.

By hearing this, it may cause issues in the future but, for right now everything still is around the same progress and nothing about gay rights have been
