It's the 40th anniversary of the Stonewall riots in New York's Greenwich Village, which founded the modern Gay Rights movement. God bless the generation that did so much to forge pride in being an out gay man today... We still have a long road ahead, living in an alleged open-mined state that can't get its legislative act together to join the rest of the Northeast (not to mention Iowa) to make gay marriage legal...
All the same, where better to preview Sunday's annual Pride celebration than the bar where it all began? Ayhan and I made a festive stop Saturday evening.
