ACT UP Oral History Project

I just finished an interview with the ACT UP Oral History Project. I’m embarrassed to admit that I was unaware of the project before Sarah Schulman asked me to participate in it, but, having seen it, I wanted to take a moment to say what an important endeavor I think it is. This is a moment in history that few poeple under thirty remember, let alone understand the importance of. Because of ACT UP, hundreds of thousands if not millions of people are alive today who wouldn’t be otherwise. I could go on and on about how important ACT UP was, to me and to the world, but in this case I don’t have to, since it’s all there online. Take a moment to check it out.

    Well, yes, except of course that everybody who took AZT died. But the army boots – fierce.
