June 28 -- 40th Anniversary of the Stonewall Inn riots in NYC

Wikipedia entry on Stonewall.

Someday, and it may not come in my lifetime, gay and lesbian Americans will have full and equal rights. Equal rights to marry, to have children, to receive health care and legal benefits for their chosen partners, etc. That day seems to be a long ways off, though significant progress has been made in the four decades since the Stonewall riots.

The most significant social issue of our day is, in my opinion, gay and lesbian rights.
