June 28th, 1969. The night our community said ENOUGH. Trans women of color — Marsha P. Johnson, Sylvia Rivera — led the fight when no one else would. This film captures the electricity of that moment: gay kids surviving on the streets of Greenwich Village, daring to exist in a world that criminalized their very being. The activism and courage depicted here isn't ancient history — it's the foundation every single Pride celebration stands on. Next time you go to a Pride parade to have fun and post cute pictures, remember: it started as a riot. Honor that.
