Common misconceptions
  • Treating the Long Civil Rights Movement as a series of separate single-issue movements — per Hall 2005 + Combahee 1977 they overlap (Black + queer + women + disabled at once via intersectionality Crenshaw 1989)
  • Forgetting AIM as part of civil-rights era — AIM founded 1968 same era as Black Panthers 1966 + Brown Berets 1967
  • Treating Stonewall as starting LGBTQ+ rights — earlier organizing existed (Mattachine Society 1950 Harry Hay + Daughters of Bilitis 1955 Del Martin + Phyllis Lyon + Compton's Cafeteria Riot Aug 1966 + Cooper Donuts 1959); Stonewall was a turning point not a start
