From the article: "The Mattachine Society (/ˈmætəʃiːn/), founded in 1950, was an early national gay rights organization in the United States,[1] preceded by several covert and open organizations, such as Chicago's Society for Human Rights.[2] Communist and labor activist Harry Hay formed the group with a collection of male friends in Los Angeles to protect and improve the rights of gay men. Branches formed in other cities, and by 1961 the Society had splintered into regional groups."

Where is the #plaque?” Palencia asks. “The plaque was right here.” The plaque #commemorated the #MattachineSociety, one of the first #US “#homophile” #groups to openly #advocate for #acceptance. “It’s erasure. Erasure of our #history,” Palencia says. “This is where it all began, at least in modern times.”
