On June 28, 1969, the two-day Stonewall Riots started after a police raid on the Stonewall Inn in Green-
wich Village in New York. It was the beginning of the gay liberation movement in America. This year, the
theme of Pride celebrations throughout the country is "A Million Moments," celebrating the 50th anniver-
sary of the Stonewall Riots. Some of those moments in time include the nation's first Pride event in New
York a year later in 1970, the first National Coming Out Day in 1988, the Supreme Court striking down the
Defense of Marriage Act in 2013, and the victories of everyday LGBTQ people. See PRIDE, Page 4C

BANGKOK – Thailand’s southern beaches lure travelers with their turquoise water and dramatic limestone cliffs, but
there’s more to explore in the Southeast Asian country that’s one of the world’s most popular destinations. For a Thai
road less traveled, try one of these getaways outside Bangkok, far from the overly Instagrammed backpacker hotspots
or the party scene of Phuket or Pattaya. See THAILAND, Page 9C
Wat Tang Sai is a Buddhist temple perched atop Thong Chai Mountain in Ban Krut in the Prachuap Khiri Khan province of Thailand. You won’t find the party scene of
Phuket or Pattaya in laid-back Ban Krut, but you will get one of the cleanest and quietest stretches of white sand within driving distance of the capital.
