Reverend Magora Kennedy, a Stonewall survivor and SAGE participant, reflects upon her experience 50 years later.

Within the above video are clips from the film "Gay & Proud," which was produced in a time when there were no television networks, cable television companies, or documentary producers who would produce or distribute such a film as "Gay & Proud.” This was done by lesbian pioneer Lilli Vincenz herself, now 83. Distribution was by U.S. mail to peoples' homes and organizations and indie festivals to be projected by a 16 mm projector.
