This image resonated with me as we have been discussing the various forms of resistance and how the political, social, historical are all interconnected. I am very interested in Politics so this image struck my interest because this is also a very important era for LGBTQ+ rights, thinking of the Stonewall Riots of 1969, and we also see reference to taxes, governmental issues, etc. so there is a lot going on in terms of protest. Thinking of how much these issues were reported in the news and within literature is also something to think about regarding the scope of our class…even though these events are well past 1865.
