Ellen Broidy looks back on more than five decades of Pride

Ellen Broidy is more terrified today than she ever was in the aftermath of the Stonewall Riots in New York City.

On the sweltering June morning in 1969, mostly young queers and other LGBTQ individuals had enough when New York City police officers raided the Stonewall Inn in Greenwich Village around 1 a.m. They fought back for six days and nights in what came to be known as the Stonewall Riots.
