Were any of the protestors appearing in the photo from the first nite of the uprising ever identified? I have spent some time looking but haven't found an answer yet. Also, it was very unclear to me in the newlt reeleased documentary whether any of the film used was of the actual Stonewall uprising -- the documentarians did not seen to distinguish authetic vs. re-enactment at all.

In response to pjm, I believe that the new Stonewall film says that some of the people in the one photo from the first night of rioting have been identified. Or perhaps that claim was made at the discussion following the opening of the film.

And, yes, the director and writer of the new Stonewall film mix different "riot" footage together, and don't tell us which is which, and which is reenactment footage.

"Do you know of any way to contact someone who was in a riot? Police officer, onlooker or actual protester?"

I was there. Question?

In response to FAS

I'm not sure what information you want. Are you interested in any riot? Or just Stonewall? Tell us more.

I was responding to a commenter who requested, "Do you know of any way to contact someone who was in a riot? Police officer, onlooker or actual protester?"

I was at Stonewall and responded to the commenter asking if there was a question, although I no longer can see that original comment.

I saw your comment and sent a more detailed response to the email address listed for you but it was returned as undeliverable.

I'd included information for you to reach the director of Stonewall Uprising in that email who might clarify which segments were original vs re-enactments for you.

I can be reached at the email address on my registration.
