However, New York also has an older history of LGBT individuals often being convicted in the state.

Activism for the rights of LGBT people in the state began with the rise of protest actions by the first "<a href="/wiki/Homophile_movement" title="Homophile movement">homophile</a>" organizations in the 1950s and 1960s, although LGBT activism was propelled into a watershed moment in the 1969 <a href="/wiki/Stonewall_riots" title="Stonewall riots">Stonewall riots</a> in <a href="/wiki/Lower_Manhattan" title="Lower Manhattan">Lower Manhattan</a> and the later protests against the apathy of civil and political institutions to the <a href="/wiki/HIV/AIDS_in_the_United_States" title="HIV/AIDS in the United States">HIV/AIDS</a> crisis. Various organizations were established for LGBT people to advocate for rights and provide human services, the impact of which was increasingly felt at the state level. Over the following years, LGBT people gained more and more visibility, and discussions surrounding LGBT rights became increasingly more prominent and mainstream. In 1980, the New York Supreme Court legalized private consensual same-sex sexual activity, a historic and landmark decision. Simultaneously with legal reforms ongoing in the state, societal and public attitudes toward the LGBT community also evolved, going from general antipathy and hostility to tolerance and acceptance.
