Here she is now, Ellen DeGeneres!

2
00:00:13,939 --> 00:00:21,379
Hi everyone! I'm Ellen and tonight, as you all know, we have Marcia Jansson, a transgender woman, LGBT activist.

3
00:00:22,260 --> 00:00:25,539
Do you remember your childhood as a happy period of your life?

4
00:00:25,539 --> 00:00:28,980
My childhood was really happy until my youth arrived.

5
00:00:28,980 --> 00:00:35,460
It was really hard to face so many bad comments about my appearance and identity,

6
00:00:35,460 --> 00:00:37,460
but I managed to overcome them.

7
00:00:37,460 --> 00:00:41,460
So, how do you describe yourself?

8
00:00:41,460 --> 00:00:52,460
Well, that's difficult, but I must describe myself as a very persistent and helpful person.

9
00:00:52,460 --> 00:00:57,460
Alright, that's great Marsha. Have you ever gone through a scary situation?

10
00:00:57,460 --> 00:01:04,459
Of course. I suppose you all know the story about what happened in Stonewall Inn.

11
00:01:04,459 --> 00:01:06,459
It was really, really, really scary.

12
00:01:06,459 --> 00:01:09,459
Some of our viewers don't know about it. Could you please tell us?

13
00:01:09,459 --> 00:01:14,459
Yes, of course. It all happened the night of the 28th of June in 1969.

14
00:01:14,459 --> 00:01:23,459
LGBT people weren't allowed to enter in pubs except in the Stonewall Inn in Greenwich Village in New York.

15
00:01:23,459 --> 00:01:33,459
We met there and had some bodies and that night the police arrived and told us that we should get naked in order to prove our gender.

16
00:01:33,459 --> 00:01:45,120
There was the first night we didn't agree to get naked, so we started a revolution, and the next day there was the first gay pride in New York.

17
00:01:45,219 --> 00:01:52,540
That's incredible. As you know, I'm a member of the LGBT community, and I'm really grateful for what you and many other people do.

18
00:01:52,540 --> 00:02:03,340
Oh, thanks. I trust that nowadays youth can continue improving our society, and LGBT people can get the rights that they deserve.

19
00:02:03,459 --> 00:02:07,459
Thank you, Marcia, for coming and sharing your story with us.

20
00:02:07,459 --> 00:02:09,460
Thank you for having me.

21
00:02:15,460 --> 00:02:23,460
Just let me love you tonight

22
00:02:26,460 --> 00:02:42,639
I'll run, need time
