Let's clear up the second part of the question first before getting into details on the first part.
No, Judy Garland's death (June 22, 1969) at almost the very same time as the Stonewall Riots (June 28, 1969) was not the reason she was popular with gay men. Ms Garland had, even at that time, been a gay icon to many for a couple of decades. The coincidence of the riots and her death probably afforded a little extra emotion to the events but they were not linked.
To many of those in the gay community at the time - and this of course doesn't mean everyone in all gay subcultures - Judy Garland reflected their own state of being in society at large. She had led a life of fame and glitter on the outside but deep hurt and tragedy on the inside, a veritable copy of a gay man's life: successful on the outside, disparaged for their secret by their own straight friends on the inside. The tragic similarities were clear.
Not to be ignored was the fact that Miss Garland was a very accomplished singer and actor and had a large gay following to her shows, both big productions and more personal appearances at piano bars, which became something of a reason for gays to gather in an age when gay social places were nearly non-existent.
Although many older gay men, and it's likely safe to say mostly older gay white men in America, may have viewed her as a gay icon, after almost 40 years, her status as an icon is not anywhere near what it was in the 50's to 70's. Most younger gay people would barely know who she is and rightfully so; Judy Garland is not of the times any more and was a reflection of a period when gays and lesbians were secretive, social outcasts living in an underworld. Today's gays and lesbians have a very different social situation and their icons reflect th more modern aspects of gay life in the early 2000's.
Although Judy Garland is definitely part of gay social history and is still referenced warmly in gay events (like the Judy Garland Memorial Bowling Society) it would be inaccurate to portray her as a popular icon in the modern gay world. There are other people taking over the role of Gay Icon as one would expect. Just as in 20 or 30 years down the road, new gay icons will replace the current set. Hopefully, they too will still have their place in gay history.
Francis Avent Gumm (March 20 1886 - November 17 1935)
Probably the most readily recognized was (The Wizard of Oz) contrary to popular misinformation, this was not her FIRST film. ( Pigskin Parade) which had obvious Football overtones- held this honor-in l938. Oz made the film scene in l939.
Yes, Frances Ethel Gumm ka Judy Garland [June 10, 1922-June 22, 1969] had her chest wrapped. Those who were involved in the production of the beloved 1939 film version of 'The Wizard of Oz' decided that Garland needed to have her chest taped and her trunk fitted with a girdle. Garland was 16 years old at the time of filming. The film's makers decided that she needed to look more like a 12-year-old.
In the inustey it's called a sneezeguard. It is meant to protect the deceased from viewers who might try to take something as a "keepsake." I believe it became popular around the time that saint were canonized before their deaths; it was believed that parts of their bodies held holy powers.
There are persistent rumors that somebody hung themselves from a tree- between two other trees, which tragically recalls Calvary. while the cast members are on the Yellow Brick Road. The popular idea it is a picture of a bird that is seen from a distance and looks like a man being hung. Suicide did NOT figure in the plot of the movie Wizard of Oz.
It is most likely because a rainbow includes all colors, and gay people promote the idea of including everybody in society. Another theory is that the rainbow flag might tie into the popular theme song of Judy Garland- whose funeral rites neatly coincided with the Stonewall riots.
Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson
Yes, one popular seafood boil restaurant in Garland, TX is Redcrab. With its wide selection of seafood options and signature boil flavors, Redcrab is a go-to destination for seafood lovers in the area.
It was popular because it voiced what everyone was thinking anyway. The colonies needed a catalyst, and Thomas Paine did that for them.
The stock answer is police harassment at the Stonewall Bar on Christopher Street in New York's Greenwich Village in June 1969. There were, however, lesser none events that occurred before then. The first group of gays to protest for rights in public were known as the Mattachine Society. They dressed in business attire and picketed against employment discrimination, particular with regard to civil servants as early as the 1950s.

It was the war's first pitched battle - Bull Run/Manassas. A Confederate General called Barnard Bee is known to have shouted "There is Jackson, standing like a stone wall!" Whether this was meant as a compliment, we don't know, as Bee was mortally wounded later in the day, and no-one got the chance to ask him. The popular interpretation is favourable, and it is claimed that Bee followed his remark with "Rally behind the Virginians!" The alternative version is that he was criticizing Jackson for not coming across to help Bee's own brigade, who were in trouble.
Stonewall Jackson Resort is located in Roanoke, West Virginia. It has a good reputation with many people who have stayed at this resort, with 75% of people rating it number one out of hotels in Roanoke. It includes a golf course, breakfast buffet, hot tub and a paddle boat which were very popular with people who had stayed there before.
Popcorn is popular to string as a garland, as are cranberries, although I'd think that would be messier for children to work with. Depending on the look you want, you could probably use some macaroni with a hole in it, like elbows, rigatoni or ziti. You could probably paint those as well. Have fun.
