@ItsCaptOz Giving a shout out as a Computer Science major! AP Lit and Lang gave me a leg up in my college coursework- no matter your field of work, being able to communicate what you know and have learned in writing is so important.
As the film closes, It reminds us of the power that everyone have the strength to fight. Change follows in the footsteps of us willing to fight.

United in Anger: A History of ACT UP is still relevant today.
@Maya00152170 This is really interesting! Makes me think about the common theme of misinformation throughout the movement. If they aren't getting statistics for everyone, how are we supposed to affect change for everyone?
to the class:
The safe sex fight along with and as a part of the AIDS fight goes along with the male circumcision conversation we had recently. How did the marketing and information spread for safe sex in the AID epidemic effect the public opinion?

"Why do we need to be liked?" The AIDs movement didn't need to be tolerated or liked. They knew that if they wanted change, they couldn't try to make everyone comfortable.

The powerful fight against the Catholic Church as an institution along with the message "We're fighting for your lives too" goes back to the church-state separation ideas in Love the Sin.

Everyone's going to ask; what did you do in the war?" It's close to how we're looking at what's happening now with blm- we want to know how we're going to be a part of the history of change.

@michellef_____ Looking at @Michell81008860's tweet about the beginning frames-- I feel like the otherness in this conflict stopped people from even feeling the need to recognize that there was an issue in the beginning.
@Michell81008860 It's important to also look at how the 'hiding' of information will carry out. Instead of just not acknowledging information, COSMO even prints misinformation. ACT UP and other groups speak out to stop the ability to pretend things aren't happening.

the insane price of AZT reminds me of how the cure for hep C, another disease that disproportionately affects already disadvantaged populations, is similarly out of reach
