NYC Pride walking tour
Tour Overview

Tour Highlights
In the years leading up to the Stonewall Uprising, the LGBTQ+ community faced systemic discrimination and marginalization. Raids on gay bars were common, with the Stonewall Inn being a prime target. On June 28, 1969, a police raid at the Stonewall Inn in New York City's Greenwich Village sparked a spontaneous protest, which evolved into days of demonstrations. This uprising marked a turning point in the fight for LGBTQ+ rights, inspiring activism and the eventual formation of the modern Pride movement.
