The state legislature approved a bill to rename a NYC subway station to Christopher Street-Stonewall National Monument, commemorating the LGBTQ+ movement's history.
Stonewall riots in 1969 marked a pivotal moment in LGBTQ+ rights, symbolizing the fight against discrimination and injustice from that era to current pride celebrations.
Stonewall Inn, a symbol of LGBTQ+ resilience, is a national historic landmark bringing patrons for pride celebrations; a visitor center focusing on LGBTQ+ history is planned.
