THE MOB & STONEWALL: Unraveling the Mafia’s Influence in the 1969 Uprising
The Stonewall Uprising stands as a pivotal moment in history—a fierce response by the LGBTQ community to relentless police raids. On June 28, 1969, the New York City Police descended upon the Stonewall Inn, a beloved gathering spot for LGBTQ individuals. But this time, the community fought back, igniting several nights of protest on the streets. Yet, amidst the well-known narrative lies a lesser-discussed chapter: the historical role of The Mafia, which happened to own the Stonewall Inn.
Join us on June 19, 2024, during Pride Month, for an enlightening conversation with Alex Hortis, acclaimed author of “The Mob and The City.” Hortis will delve into the intricate web of relationships, revealing how The Mafia unintentionally played a part in sparking the renowned Stonewall Uprising.

Now You See Me asks us to discover the space between what is seen and what may be forever hidden from view.
