Queers Fucking Queers

"You know, the guys there were so beautiful...they've lost that wounded look that fags all had 10 years ago." -A participant The Stonewall Inn is a bar financed by the Genovese Family, one of the historical five families of the Italian Mafia. From its inception, the bar has been illegal. It has black walls and has no running water. The charge for admission is 3 dollars. When the police arrive, the black lights go off and the white lights come on. Everyone takes their hands off each other and stops dancing. Sometimes the police will storm inside, line everyone up, search for any men dressed as women, and throw them in jail. On Saturday, the police raided the Stonewall. They fucked with you, separated you, knocked you to the ground. For some reason, maybe because you all didn't give a shit anymore, you stayed nearby when they kicked you all out of the bar. Instead of going home, you started fucking with the police. You slashed their tires, chased them away, found some rocks, started throwing them, and then everything began to happen very quickly, kids started appearing out of nowhere, running towards you, helping you, moving with you, and then you started to fight them, to hurt them, to stop those horrible pigs in their tracks and beat them until they went away. That's when it all started, on Saturday. Everyone else can go fuck themselves, all the others who sit there and take it. There's only one picture from that night and only those of you who were there remember what it felt like. |
The following quotations are taken from fliers repeatedly thrown into the air on Saturday in Capitol Hill, Seattle. They were met with great applause from the crowd that was dancing in the streets.
“Pride was born early on Saturday, June 28th, 1969. That morning, in response to the latest in a string of brutal police raids on queer bars, the patrons of the Stonewall Inn fought back. Even in the criminalized queer community of the time, the Stonewall Inn was the hang-out for those on its fringes: homeless youth, drag queens, trans people, and hustlers. The crowd was largely people of color. On that morning, they paved the way for Pride. Except their Pride was no parade. It was a fucking riot.”
On Saturday there was a full moon hanging over Capitol Hill. This once was a shady place, an illegal place, a place with life that wasn't gridded out, sterilized, made safe and clean. Some of you can remember when it was different. There are more and more rich cars, rich assholes, people who think they own everything. There's people spending money like crazy, giving their money away, doing the same old crap every fucking day just to have something to do that's not work. There aren't anymore police raiding our bars because we're supposed to be in the fucking bar. We're nice and safe and contained there like horny sardines. More importantly, we're not a threat to them. We take money out from the bank and spend it at the bar. The police aren't afraid of us inside the bar, only outside. It's not about having our own bar or house or car or marriage. It's really fucking simple. It's all about breaking the law. Purely and simply. Laws kept us in chains then, they keep us in chains now. Only now they are a bit more comfortable and can get us laid sometimes. Fuck the bars, fuck the banks, it's a lot more fun when you fuck in the street.
“Over time, Pride parades have come to represent the opposite of its origins: they are permitted, sponsored, and devoid of struggle. Pride now serves as a vehicle to promote the agenda of a specific segment of the LGBT movement: white, affluent, socially acceptable consumers. Unsurprisingly, this is the opposite of the people who fought back 41 years ago. The deal works like this: as long as we queers are kept under control, they’ll promise to treat us just like straight people. We’ll get the same poverty, racism, police brutality, borders, boring-ass relationship models, prison sentences, and (if we’re lucky) opportunities to die in imperialist wars.”
On Saturday in Capitol Hill a bunch of you saw some people dancing in the street. You screamed and ran towards them. The further you danced, following the music, the more people surrounded you, bumped into you, kissed you. It was easy to do what you wanted. You could have been drinking, taking off your clothes, breaking bank windows, dancing, throwing glitter at people, playing with balloons, dancing on cars, kicking off Mercedes hood ornaments, smashing fancy Audi's with dumpsters, deflating Porsche tires, dragging shit into the street, yelling at repo men, jabbering at people in cars, ignoring the police, and if you had really wanted to, you could have fucked each other wherever you wanted. In fact, some of you did these things on Saturday, and you loved it.
“This is a shit deal. Some will complain that the system hasn’t kept up its part of the bargain, and it’s true. But we’re not concerned with that. Even if they kept their promises, it wouldn’t mean anything to us. We’re not interested in their deal. We’re not interested in being controlled. We’re interested in the freedom to live our lives how we see fit, and the freedom to have control of our own bodies. We’re interested in abolishing every aspect of this society.”
This is all getting boring, the same thing all the time. It felt good for one moment, didn't it, knowing you could do whatever you wanted? It felt good to be able to ignore the laws you didn't want to uphold, to act in any manner you chose. Did you know why the police didn't fuck with us? Because no police force wants to provoke an angry crowd of people like we were that night. There were three hundred of us moving through Capitol Hill. Freedom always comes with risk. On Saturday, people dared to walk in the street without permission. Rather than get punched in the face, we ignored those shitheads in the cruisers and did what we wanted, knowing we could. On another Saturday, people dared to fight the police. It all takes risk. It never comes easy. An easy life is fucking boring.
“See, we have pride too. But our pride looks like a riot, not a parade. Our pride is a struggle against every repressive part of this society, from heteronormativity to gay assimilation, from capitalism to prisons, from borders to cops. We want freedom, and not the false freedom that assimilation offers. We want liberation.”
The preceding quotations were written by some queer hooligans (that's what they called themselves). They were distributed in the form of a flier tossed into the air and passed from hand to hand to the dancing crowd on Saturday night, under the full moon. The moving dance party lasted for one hour. It stopped halfway down Pine, halfway to Downtown. It disappeared as quickly as it was born. No one was arrested. No one was punched in the face. On the night of the sanctioned “pride” areas, the party moved wherever it wished. The Mafia wanted you in a bar. Now the police want you in a bar. Every Saturday, the real party is in the street.
