I need support with this History question so I can learn better.

Black LGBTQ+ actvists Bayard Rustin and Marsha P. Johnson

Traditional narratives of African American history are presented as “straight” history, however Black LGBTQ+ individuals have shaped nearly every aspect of African American history and culture. In this essay you will write on the impact that the Black LGBTQ+ community has had within the wider African American community during the 20th century. You can choose an individual (e.g. James Baldwin, Pauli Murray, Bayard Rustin, Marsha P. Johnson), a cultural or political movement (e.g. Ballroom culture) or an event (e.g. Stonewall uprising).
