Question

What was in effect of the stone well riots in New York City

Answer 1

The Stonewall riots (also referred to as the Stonewall uprising or the Stonewall rebellion) were a series of spontaneous, violent demonstrations by members of the gay (LGBT) community[note 1] against a police raid that took place in the early morning hours of June 28, 1969, at the Stonewall Inn in the Greenwich Villageneighborhood of Manhattan, New York City. They are widely considered to constitute the most important event leading to the gay liberation movement[2][3][4] and the modern fight for LGBT rights in the United States.[5][6]
