And? I’m waiting for the part where you actually contradict the mainstream history.
You’ve mentioned that there was a “thriving New York gay subculture,” but that it required a lot of creativity to keep it underground. That’s well-documented and quite interesting, but it’s still in hiding, as opposed to the Stonewall riots, which were so visible that it was newspapers, not researchers, talking about it.
You conclude that the fight for gay rights was “a long and difficult one with many casualties along the way and that it’s still very much being fought. We survived by carving out niches for ourselves over and over amid the growth of major cities, adapting to changing forms of oppression over the decades. Our civil rights were not won for us by one mythical transwoman in 1969.” Nobody with any sense would contradict that claim! Memorable historical moments like the Stonewall riots don’t rewrite society overnight!
You’re defeating a straw transwoman here.
