June 28, 1969: Police Raid the Stonewall Inn

In the early morning hours of June 28, 1969, police raided the Stonewall Inn, a popular gay bar in the Greenwich Village section of New York City. That night, the street erupted into violent protests and street demonstrations that lasted for the next three days.

The Stonewall riots, as they came to be known, marked a major turning point in the modern gay civil rights movement in the United States and around the world.

In 2011, American Experience released the film “The Stonewall Uprising.”

Today, on the 44th anniversary, we invite you to:
    •    Explore the milestones in the American Gay Rights Movement
    •    View photos of the Stonewall Uprising
    •    Watch the full film The Stonewall Uprising (Run time: 01:22:03)

Boney M – Brown Girl In The Ring

Boney_M

Please don’t ask what the lyrics mean. Nobody asks what the odd language in the Bible means, people just act like they know and assume it means something very deep and meaningful.

 

Brown girl in the ring

Tra la la la la

There’s a brown girl in the ring

Tra la la la la la

Brown girl in the ring

Tra la la la la

She looks like a sugar in a plum

Plum plum
Show me your motion

Tra la la la la

Come on show me your motion

Tra la la la la la

Show me your motion

Tra la la la la

She looks like a sugar in a plum

Plum plum
All had water run dry

Got nowhere to wash my cloths

All had water run dry

I got nowhere to wash my cloths
I remember one Saturday night

We had fried fish and Johnny-cakes

I remember one Saturday night

We had fried fish and Johnny-cakes

Boney M – The Rivers of Babylon – Original US 12″ Version

There we sat down. There’s something so unique about lyrics in English as a second language. I wish I could forget English and learn it again. Click the pic and see them in their Ancient Greek look.
