Students and community members gather to commemorate the Stonewall Uprising
[Milwaukee, WI] – The Students for a Democratic Society chapter at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM), and Reproductive Justice Action Milwaukee, alongside community allies, will hold a rally and march at Cathedral Square on Saturday, June 28th, commemorating the anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising.
The protest will begin at 6:00 PM at Cathedral Square, located off of Wells and Jackson Streets in Milwaukee. Demonstrators will then continue their action by marching to 400 N. Plankinton Ave., the site of the historic Black Nite Brawl placard, and then return back to Cathedral Square.
Students for a Democratic Society, Reproductive Justice Action Milwaukee, and supporting groups emphasize that they will continue to resist and mobilize until the Trump Administration acknowledges the rights of all people who identify as LGBTQIA+, and protects those rights as well. We will not stay quiet because Stonewall was a riot!
