Sylvia Riveras powerful speech against the exclusion of transgender people at the Gay Pride Rally NYC, 1973.
Transcript:
Y'all better quiet down! I've been trying to get up here all day for your gay brothers and your gay sisters in jail that write me every motherfucking week and ask for your help! And you all don't do a goddamn thing for them! And they write STAR, not the woman's group! They do not write women, they do not write men, they write to STAR! Because we're trying to do something for them! But you all tell me to go and hide my tail between my legs! I will not put up with this shit! I have been beaten, I have had my nose broken, I have been thrown in jail, I have lost my job, I have lost my apartment for gay liberation, and you all treat me this way?! What the fuck's wrong with you all?! Think about that! I believe in the gay power, I believe in us getting our rights, or else I would not be out there fighting for our rights, that's all I wanted to say to you people. Come and see people at STAR House on Twelfth Street, the people that are trying to do something for all of us, and not men and women that belong to our white middle class club! And that's what you all belong to! Revolution now! Gay power! Know the gay power!
This is actually a heavily edited version of her speech, cutting out all of her focus on the sexual violence that she and other queer folks, especially trans and GNC folks experienced at the time. She was angry that all of the white middle class queers that were managing and primarily attending the March were ignoring the massive amounts of state supported violence being directed towards lower class queers and especially queer POC. Cutting out her repeated mentions of rape to make the video more palatable is continuing to erase that violence. Watch/read the full version instead and acknowledge that this violence has barely slowed down today for trans folks. That our president issued an order to imprison trans women in men's prisons, directly ordering our justice system to ignore the Prison Rape Elimination Act as part of ensuring that those sexual violence against trans folks was perpetuated. Don't you fucking dare cut her words in the topic.
Here's the full transcript and an unedited video or her speech. Also, don't forget in your transcript that she spoke through boo's and jeers and that's why she had to tell them to quiet down to start. Those boo's died down as her speech continued and the crowd felt shame.
Sylvia: "Yâall better quiet down. Iâve been trying to get up here all day for your gay brothers and your gay sisters in jail that write me every motherfucking week and ask for your help and you all donât do a goddamn thing for them.
Have you ever been beaten up and raped and jailed? Now think about it. Theyâve been beaten up and raped after theyâve had to spend much of their money in jail to get their [inaudible], and try to get their sex changes. The women have tried to fight for their sex changes or to become women. On the womenâs liberation and they write âSTAR,â not to the womenâs groups, they do not write women, they do not write men, they write âSTARâ because weâre trying to do something for them.
I have been to jail. I have been raped. And beaten. Many times! By men, heterosexual men that do not belong in the homosexual shelter. But, do you do anything for me? No. You tell me to go and hide my tail between my legs. I will not put up with this shit. I have been beaten. I have had my nose broken. I have been thrown in jail. I have lost my job. I have lost my apartment for gay liberation and you all treat me this way? What the fuckâs wrong with you all? Think about that!
I do not believe in a revolution, but you all do. I believe in the gay power. I believe in us getting our rights, or else I would not be out there fighting for our rights. Thatâs all I wanted to say to you people. If you all want to know about the people in jail and do not forget Bambi Lâamour, and Dora Mark, Kenny Metzner, and other gay people in jail, come and see the people at Star House on Twelfth Street on 640 East Twelfth Street between B and C apartment 14.
The people are trying to do something for all of us, and not men and women that belong to a white middle class white club. And thatâs what you all belong to! "
REVOLUTION NOW! Gimme a âGâ! Gimme an âAâ! Gimme a âYâ! Gimme a âPâ! Gimme an âOâ! Gimme a âWâ! Gimme an âE! Gim me an âRâ! [crying] Gay power! Louder! GAY POWER!
For those of you who are unaware, the "STAR" she is referring to is the Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries. A short-lived group she founded with Marsha P. Johnson, which sought to organize lumpen-proletarian trans women along a similar model to that pioneered by national liberation groups like the Black Panther Party. Rivera, as a representative of STAR, even attended the BPP's People's Revolutionary Constitution, where she advocated for the inclusion of trans women in the wider revolutionary movement
I actually do think we should discourage women from becoming housewives. Do not become financially dependent on a man. That's how a lot of women ended up dead over the years. A man gets violent suddenly and you have to choose between homelessness or potentially dying at his hand because you have an enormous gap in your resume and no degrees or certifications or anything that will help you pursue a career that will allow you to be financially independent. He owns your bank account. His name is probably the one on the car. Try and leave and he can report it stolen. Where will you go then?
Don't become a housewife.
And if you do become a housewife, take steps to protect yourself. Make sure youâre legally married, for starters; stay-at-home girlfriends have very little legal recourse to claim their partnerâs assets in a breakup. Make sure your name is on the house deed/rental agreement, and have your car in your name, even if your spouse is paying for it. Have your spouse transfer money every month into an account solely in your name, so you can buy yourself things without needing permission, but also so you can save up to leave if needed.
If your spouse fights you on any of this, then donât quit your job. The tradwife to poverty pipeline is real, and so is financial abuse.
also, many women/people experience controlling behaviour and domestic violence from their partner for the first time during pregnancy. donât risk thinking âheâs just stressed, itâll get better when the baby comesâ because it wonât. neither you and your child will ever be safe with that man. get out as early and safely as you can

I deleted my account just now, because there was no way to turn this off or opt out.
I overheard a woman at my job say "Your whole personality revolves around what you hate instead of what you love and thats an awful way to live." to the resident vocal Maga in the breakroom.
He was stunned into silence for at least 60 seconds so that was nice.
