Flor Fights Back: A Stonewall Riots Survival Story (Girls Survive #24)

2023

by Joy Michael Ellison and Francesca Ficorilli

“After Flor’s mother dies in early 1969, she is left with her grandmother who refuses to accept Flor’s identity as a trans girl. Flor decides that in order to be true to herself, she must leave home. She makes friends with Tami, a trans teenager, and the two girls meet adults who help them make their way in the queer and trans community of New York City. Invited to meet up with some new friends, the girls sneak into the Stonewall Inn on a night that leads to a police raid and violence. Will Flor escape the riot and continue her fight to live as she is? Readers can learn the real story of the Stonewall Riots from the nonfiction back matter in this Girls Survive story. A glossary, discussion questions, and writing prompts are also provided.” — publisher
