THE BLACK CAT. A BRIEF HISTORY.
Predating the Stonewall uprising in New York by two full years, the 1967 Black Cat demonstration marks one of the first moments in US history that the LGBTQ community organized publicly to protest the harassment, brutality, and persecution they were suffering at the hands of the state for being queer. Learn more about the history of The Black Cat.
