Stonewall riots
In June 2019, Paris, France named a square Stonewall Riots Square. In the renamed Stonewall Riots Square, a plaque commemorating Baker was installed. The plaque was unveiled by Anne Hidalgo, Mayor of Paris, French officials, Stuart Milk and activists of Stonewall riots. This new plaza is situated in the center of The Marais, gay neighborough of the French capital. This plaque is now part of the heritage of the City of Paris and is located between a Gucci boutique and Italian marketplace Eataly. Dotted with café terraces, this pedestrian place also hosts some days a truck for the prevention of AIDS. Despite the crowds, Parisians and visitors can gather in front of this memorial dedicated to Gilbert Baker.
