"You know, I have been in this movement since 1969,

I marched in the first Christopher Street Liberation Day March,

It's important to remember, and I think this is the time to do it,

that it was a woman, lesbian woman, who refused to get in the paddy wagon at the Stonewall, and started the Stonewall Riots, and where the movement all began.

And it started with lesbians! (Clapping, cheering by the crowd).

I also want to say, that it was a lesbian group, that led the first march up Fifth Avenue on a sunny Sunday afternoon, for all the world to see.

Now, year after year, since that first march,

Women have to fight for their place in line,

We are not recognized in our own movement,

We are invisible,

And part of what this rally is all about today,

Is to show ourselves and the world,

that we have been the leaders of this movement all along,

and that damn it we're going to stand up and take our own rights

into our own hands from now on."

What I don't understand about all this stuff is that no one is more special than then next in the eyes of our Constitution.. WE ALL HAVE THE SAME PROTECTIONS.. So all this demonstrating & protesting makes Americans think that some people think they deserve more than others. Well, I'm sorry, but that is not an option.. We're all Americans. We already have all we need. Stop feeling sorry for yourself & get out there and grab your dream.. You've been deceived into separating yourselves from the rest. You are not victims.
