Episode 8 – Kicklines & Cop Cars: The Stonewall Uprising

In This Broadcast

We are the Stonewall Girls – And we brought receipts.

This week on Dot Femme, Dany Gonzalez and Claire Michelle find themselves on a sweltering summer night in 1969 New York City, to break down the Stonewall Uprising and the birth of the Gay Liberation Front.

We bust some long-held myths (no, it wasn’t about Judy Garland), spotlight key players like Stormé DeLarverie, and dig into cops, kicklines, and the queer rage that would spark a queer political revolution.

You’ll hear how the Gay Liberation Front emerged from the uprising with a bold new vision for queer activism: intersectional, anti-capitalist, and unapologetically revolutionary. Come for the history, stay for the lyrics to the official riot anthem.
