Speaking to The National, Stacy Lentz and Kurt Kelly, who co-own The Stonewall Inn in New York, where riots broke out in 1969 after a police raid on one of the few safe LGBT+ spaces that existed at the time, said: "JK Rowling, through her books and movie franchises and everything globally, has a platform and it has done damage.
