The 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York City are often considered a pivotal moment in LGBTQ+ history, including the transgender community. Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera, two African American transgender women, were among the key figures in these riots, which responded to a police raid on the Stonewall Inn, a gay bar. Their activism was instrumental in sparking the modern LGBTQ+ rights movement, highlighting the intersectionality of struggles within the community.
