ACT UP Oral History Project Cable Access Show

Begins Friday, December 26th 1 AM (that’s late Thursday night)

And airs Every Friday @ 1 AM through March 20, 2009

With a grant from Manhattan Neighborhood Network, the ACT UP Oral History Project has created a 9-part cable access series. Edited by James Wentzy and Jim Hubbard. The series includes programs on “Changing the CDC Definition of AIDS” and “ACT UP’s Greatest Achievements.”

The ACT UP Oral History Project has been documenting the history of AIDS Activism by conducting long-format interviews of members of ACT UP. We’ve done 103 interviews so far. We are creating a vital and complex portrait of a diverse community of people who came to believe that self-empowerment, social change and direct political action could provide solutions to the AIDS crisis and investigating the history of a movement that chose civic engagement over palliative solutions and which has served as a model for increased participation in public affairs for marginalized groups in the New York City and around the world.

For more information on the project go to www.actuporalhistory.org.

Vita Sackville-West's diary of 1920-21 records both her cross-dressing and her Lesbian relations with Violet Trefusis and others-readily lending itself to a feminist interpretation (Nigel Nicholson, Portrait of a Marriage [N.Y.: Bantam, 1973], p. II, 107-08, III, 114-16, 121, 141, 154, 164-65, 177). A scrapbook, apparently kept by a Lesbian in the 19205 and 1930s, is in the collection of the Institute for Sex Research, Bloomington, Ind. It includes numbers of newspaper clippings concerning women wearing pants and reported episodes of transvestism.
