Original Note:
Maupin is almost certainly referring to the Stonewall riots of 1969 where trans people were prominent. However, the movement for gay and lesbian rights traces its roots to much earlier than that, e.g., Scientific-Humanitarian Committee (1897), Mattachine Society (1950), etc. https://guides.loc.gov/lgbtq-studies/before-stonewall/mattachine
