Due to Cooper Do-nuts' proximity to several gay and lesbian establishments, a case of resisting arrest evolved into a full-scale riot that is remembered as the first open act of LGBTQ resistance toward police abuse in the United States.plain2022-09-07T00:32:42+00:001959Gina Leonf0ac362b4453e23ee8a94b1a49fbeeafde2a0a49
