#UnitedInAnger #NURelSex watching the ashes spread on the White House lawn and hearing the countless eulogies was a painfully human moment, and may be a tactic useful now; grief is one of the most powerful ways to make others truly understand the struggle of the oppressed

#UnitedInAnger #NURelSex It’s amazing how quickly ACT UP gained momentum and how gay men openly marched for gay rights, despite the deeply homophobic atmosphere of the 80s; hopefully we can embody the same courage as we protest now

#UnitedInAnger #NuRelSex “48% said they should be issued special identification, 15% said AIDS victims should be tattooed” - this reminds me of Orsi’s story of alienation and the “us-them” relationship; equality cannot be achieved when a majority ignores the plights of a minority

@LissetLazcano I 100% agree. All marginalized groups are oppressed by the same heteronormative, white-majority, christian-dominated society. all of our struggles are connected, and we all have to support each other #UnitedInAnger #NURelSex

@ellenneilson322 the AIDS movement definitely would’ve gotten faster results if they had the power of social media. with instagram, twitter, and other media, we can incredibly quickly spread protests videos, petition links, and more #UnitedInAnger #NuRelSex

#UnitedInAnger #NURelSex to the class: are there any tactics/strategies that the ACT UP movement utilized that can be used now in the BLM movement to create change?
