Sarah Schulman in conversation with Mattilda Bernstein Sycamore

June 17, 2021 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm PDT

Free

Sarah Schulman discusses her new book Let the Record Show: A Political History of Act Up New York, 1987-1993.  Based on more than two hundred interviews with ACT UP members, Let the Record Show is the most comprehensive political history ever assembled of ACT UP and American AIDS activism. In just six years, ACT UP, New York, a broad and unlikely coalition of activists from all races, genders, sexualities and backgrounds, changed the world. Their activism, in its complex and intersectional power, transformed the lives of people with AIDS and the bigoted society that had abandoned them. Let the Record Show can be purchased from Dog Eared Books Castro at this link: https://www.shopdogearedbookscastro.com/book/9780374185138.
