1. Black women are the best storytellers, like seriously! They should be the only ones here to do this?

2. Her cup is almost empty at 2:14 and then refills at 2:16

3. I wish they hadn't started with "New York had a growing LGBTQ population," as though LGBTQ people didn't exist there before and were suddenly appeared out of thin air.

4. Stonewall Inn, along with other bars disapproved of drag queens entering their bars.

5. The STONEWALL INN was owned by the Genovese crime family and was a habitatual health code violator and a fire-hazard. Find a better LGBTQ landmark!

6. 3:20she had the chance to say "We're here and we're queer"

7. I L❤️ ve her hair ??? and I love this story. We came our way but there is still so much way to go. Never forget that ?️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍??️‍?

8. 3 things: First, she is super annoying when she's drunk and a little aggressive. Second, Derek either really wants her…or he's trying not to blow a fuse. I can't tell if he's furious or in love. Third, I like Sacagawea on a coin. Coins are more permanent and resilient than paper. A coin might not be worth as much as most paper money, but in grit and sturdiness, it holds fast. Paper is lost in the washing machine of humanity. Benjamin Franklin is the only person who MIGHT deserve to be on a bill. George Washington didn't even want to fight for the country or be a President. People just liked him and peer pressured him into doing it. Hamilton was a murderer and con artist. Grant's administration was loaded with scandals are money crimes. Jackson had his own controversies. Abraham Lincoln only cared about the financial losses he would take if the South continued to do business with France vs the North, which is the primary reason he pushed for the Civil War. Slavery was low on his list, but he had to appear the humanitarian. That would crush the South's economy and allow him to take over (Reconstruction period). I prefer people of noble intention to hold face on a coin, because the ideals and traits of most of those men, were as thin and disposable as paper.
   Also me: Buying scotch tape for $2.58 at Walmart with my debit card so I can tape a $5 bill back together that I found in the parking lot

9. interviewer dude has a crush on this one. usually he's all like 'ugh you're drunk, my job is talking to drunk ass people, what a drag' but he has a huge crush on this narrator

10. omg shes so funny. I love how she shakes her head around so much

11. 1:45 OMG! ?

12. "AY BITCH!" CLAP CLAP

13. that babe has bangin hair

14. But it makes it seem like she was a real female … why not use a real m4f. …. Her birth name was Malcolm Michaels, Jr.

15. 3:13 tho!!!!!!!!!! LOL!!

16. One thing that was wrong is when they insinuated that Marcia's parents n family did not accept her and kicked her out when that is not true they loved her no matter what! Her family still gets fans of hers to this day! They fully accepted their daughter! Now a majority of other parents didn't but I wouldn't want Marcia's parents in that hateful mix!

17. Who you fuck in the privacy of your bedroom should not be a criteria for being a “minority group”. No one has to know that if you’re a woman that you love to lick ? pussy or if you’re a man that you love to suck dick and take it up the ass. Stop it already. Besides, at this point everybody and their mama (except me and a few others) are gay anyway so being heterosexual is a minority at this point but you don’t see me bitching and moaning for civil rights.

18. she's got hair for days.

19. we here we queer

20. Am I the only one tripping about her leg at 1:32 ?

21. holy shit the actress who plays marsha is so adorable

22. It's the Derek X Crissle fanclub up in the comments. It ain't happenin', yall!

23. Police officer: wait for us to verify your motherf**king genitals
    ???????

24. Check out “The Stonewall You know is a Myth. And that’s ok”
    I love Drunk history but they didn’t do their homework because this is riddled with inaccuracies… Maybe the alcohol? Lol For instance as lovely as she was, Marsha didn’t even arrive until the fire had started long after the initial raid.. Watch that video if you want to hear eyewitness accounts from men & women who were there, historians as well as taped statements from Marsha & Sylvia. I’ll still keep watching Drunk History though! ?

25. i felt a bit weird hearing Marsha's deadname… she is drunk tho :')

26. Imagine throwing a huge crusade over the blasphemy that is misgendering, and then misgendering a transvestite just so you can pretend you have an icon for representation

27. Love me Tracy ????

28. “AY BITCH ????????WE HERE!!!! AND S ?T IS UNDER MOTHERF ? ING ARREST!”

    ?? I DIED ????
