Rise Up: Stonewall and the LGBTQ Rights Movement with Illinois Holocaust Museum & Education Center

Illinois Holocaust Museum’s newest exhibition explores the June 1969 police raid of the Stonewall Inn as the flashpoint that ignited the modern gay rights movement in the United States. In the fifty years since the Stonewall Uprising, America’s LGBTQ population has struggled for equal rights and representation under the law. Learn how you can use the Rise Up exhibition to share the voices and tell the stories of this movement to support the Illinois Inclusive History requirement. Walk away with resources to enhance your current practice. This webinar is aligned to Theme 5 of the Educating for American Democracy Roadmap- Institutional and Social Transformation.

In partnership with Illinois Civics
