To celebrate LGBTQ+ History Month, the Intercultural Diversity will host the Stonewall National Museum’s 50 Years: The Stonewall Uprising traveling exhibit. In 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. Participants will learn about the creation and execution of the LGBTQ+ rights movement, the era of LGBTQ+ liberation, the impact of gay activist organizations, understand why the Stonewall riots became the catalytic movement in the effort to secure equal rights for LGBTQ+ Americans. 50 Years: The Stonewall Uprising traveling exhibit will open on Monday, October 3, 2022 at 3pm and conclude on Monday, October 31, 2022 in the Intercultural Diversity Center (2100 Student Center).
