石墙事件如何引发了一场革命

How Stonewall Sparked a Revolution

想象一下生活在一个仅仅做自己就可能被逮捕的世界。

这就是20世纪60年代LGBTQ+群体的现实。那时,公开是同性恋、女同性恋、双性恋或跨性别者不仅被人们不齿——在大多数地方还是非法的。警方经常突袭LGBTQ+人群聚集的酒吧,仅仅因为他们敢于存在并一起快乐地相处。

 

骄傲之前的生活


像纽约市格林威治村的石墙酒吧不仅仅是喝酒的地方——它们是那些在其他地方感到不安全的人的避风港。石墙酒吧并不豪华:有些破旧,但它欢迎所有人,尤其是那些经常被排斥的人:跨性别者、变装皇后、有色人种以及无处可去的年轻人。

但即使这些安全空间也并非真正安全。警方突袭很常见。警察会冲进来,打开灯,把所有人排成一排,并以“违反规定”为由逮捕人。大多数夜晚,人们会尽量保持冷静,希望事情快点结束。

 

改变一切的那个夜晚


但1969年6月28日,那晚有所不同。当警方突袭石墙酒吧时,人群决定忍无可忍。人们拒绝出示身份证,有些人还进行了反抗,外面聚集的人群越来越多,越来越大胆。

当晚在场的Stormé DeLarverie后来说

“这是一场反抗,是一次起义,是一场民权抗命——绝不是该死的骚乱。”

人们开始高呼口号,投掷硬币和瓶子,捍卫自己的权利。警方震惊了,最终把自己关在酒吧内,外面的人群要求正义。抗议持续了数天,越来越多的人加入。第一晚有13人被捕,石墙酒吧几乎被毁,但社区的精神比以往任何时候都更强大。

 

骄傲的诞生


石墙事件不是LGBTQ+群体第一次反抗,但它是一个转折点。它激励人们组织起来,发声,争取平等权利。新的激进团体成立,仅一年后,即1970年6月28日,第一场骄傲游行在纽约市举行,纪念这次起义的周年。这场游行成为我们现在所知的骄傲月传统,在全世界庆祝。

目睹石墙事件的Michael Fader完美总结道:

“最重要的是,我们不会消失。我们也没有。”

 

为什么石墙事件依然重要


石墙事件向世界展示了LGBTQ+群体不再沉默。2016年,石墙酒吧成为美国第一个以LGBTQ+权利为主题的国家纪念碑,强有力地提醒我们已经走了多远,还有多远要走。

骄傲是庆祝你是谁,纪念那些为平等站出来的人,并继续为一个人人都能做自己的世界而奋斗:没有例外。
