'I was here the day of the rebellion': The birthplace of the gay rights movement celebrates the Supreme Court
Minutes after Friday's historic Supreme Court ruling that made same-sex marriage legal in all 50 states, Business Insider headed to The Stonewall Inn, a bar in New York City that's known as the birthplace of the gay rights movement.
Stonewall was the site of a riot on June 28, 1969 after police officers raided the bar. Patrons responded by destroying police cars and barricading officers into the bar.
The following year, gay rights groups held an anniversary celebration, which eventually morphed into the worldwide Gay Pride festivities including the parade in New York that's scheduled for this weekend.
On Friday, the Stonewall was the epicenter for a celebration of the Supreme Court decision.
