Stonewall Makes History Again: Becomes First National Park Site Dedicated to LGBT History

bit.ly/295aRTH

 

New York, N.Y. – After more than two years of building strong public support in the community, across the nation and in Congress, National Parks Conservation Association (NPCA) celebrates President Obama’s historic designation of Stonewall National Monument, the first national park site dedicated to lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) history. To coincide with national LGBT Pride Month, and just a few days before the 47th anniversary of the Stonewall uprising, President Obama today officially designated the area surrounding Stonewall Inn and Christopher Park in New York City’s Greenwich Village as our 412th national park site.

The Stonewall Building, aka the American Life Building, was built in 1940 or 1926 depending on who you ask. It has been abandoned for around 30 years.

I went up to Stonewall Peak last night to shoot star trails and Milky Way photography, but the clouds got in the way, so I decided to make the best of it and shoot some timelapse video while I was there.

The monument to Confederate General Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson at Mannasas, Virginia. It was here, during the First Battle of Bull Run, that the nickname "Stonewall" was given to Jackson by another general.

We were out on August 11th, looking for the Perseid Meteor shower that always comes on this day of the year. Unfortunately, there was a slight mist that made viewing any meteors all but impossible.

Taken at Bull Run park. We were amazed at how comically muscular Jackson and his horse are portrayed! They appear in SuperHero style...to include the fist on Jackson's hip.

at a historical site in Sicily, Italy, and no I didn't take any with me !?

 

Shot in the spring of 1983 with Carena SRH500 on Kodak Kodacolor Safety film and wouldn't be surprised if it was taken with the Cosina Cosinon 135mm f/2.8 lens either.

This is the statute of the imposing figure of Thomas J. Jackson astride his mount Sorrel. It is at the Manassas Battlefield National Park in Manassas, Virginia. The statue commemorates the point during the First Battle of Manassas when this Confederate commander stood "like a stone wall" against Union soldiers and ultimately, is credited for inspiring Confederate troops to victory that day.

 

The Battlefield is a worthwhile visit - to stand on the fields that began the nation's war with the greatest mortality was quite sobering. And, yet, the place is beautiful and stands much as it did 150 years ago.
