Summary		What began as a supposed routine police raid that was actually a clandestine plan to clear out an unwelcome aspect of society from a Mafia-run bar turned into a pivotal point in the history of the American Gay Rights Movement: The Stonewall Riots. Ann Bausum's riveting exploration of the Stonewall Riots and the national Gay Rights movement that followed is eye-opening, unflinching, and inspiring.
