Disco
In the United States, Disco wasn't really accepted or taken seriously because it brought every gays,
lesbians, bisexuals and Africans together. It was not easy for these people back then when Disco came up because it was seen from the society as a mental illness. In their heads, people who liked disco weren't right in the head so they discriminated and judged them.
Disco came up in the 70's after the stonewall riots and Americans, Latinos, Africans and the LGBT community were the only ones back then that enjoyed Disco and they are the reason why Disco got so much fan based/popularity. Most of the underground clubs in American were all about Disco, people didn't care if the space were small. Because of its
energetic atmosphere and funky/groovy dance floor people fell in love with it and also because that was the only thing people who weren't treated equally could all relate to without worrying and enjoy themselves.
Disco music is also the reason why gay, lesbians and bisexuals have the freedom they have today, not having to worry about going to jail or not for enjoying it.
The reason why the stonewall riots happened is because homosexual people had enough of being treated like nothing, having no right to speak to defend themselves. being discriminated because they liked someone from the same sex and having to worry about going to jail or not, because if you were seen dancing with someone from the same sex would be put in jail.

the Gay community had a local underground club that was owned by Mafia who provided drugs, alcoholic drinks, and freedom for the homosexuals and black people to be who they are without worrying about people judging them.
The stonewall riots brought up Gay and Lesbians, Transsexuals and Drag queens all in one place to fight for their freedom and equality. It happened in June 28th, 1969 in New York.
