‘Stonewall is about the power of mockery, and fun and celebration, about shabby violence and brilliant political intervention, about riff-raff and the reputable working hand in hand, about the need for supporters of sensible but difficult causes-gay rights, euthanasia, drug reform-to show their faces in daylight. It’s about the power of coming out.’
The above I quote with thanks to Davd Marr from ‘THE ESSAY’, Sydney Morning Herald June 27-28 2009.
