Adam in the Morning

Adam in the Morning is about men and women who fought in the Stonewall riots in June and early July 1969. They ask each other What's happening here? They talk politics they throw bricks and molotov cocktails at the cops they get bloodied and they read The Wretched of the Earth by Franz Fanon. They have sex. They lose their fear and understand their world has profoundly changed. They discuss big issues: What can we do to change our world? Am I strong enough? Are there enough of us? They are ready for the Revolution. Bo the carpenter thinks of starting a home for the street kids but also something even more dramatic and Andrew his partner is starting a newspaper. Joseph the actor has fallen in love but can fight better than any of the rest of them. One of them says after the last night's riot It's as if we've got more space in the city. They are committed to their cause to each other to all of people on the street and their eyes look to the future.
