36. PRIDE month: HIV representation in 90s
from Notable Nostalgia · host Notable Nostalgia
It's PRIDE Month and since we are an LGBTQ+ identified and allies podcast we are dedicating all of June to 90s LGBTQ+ topics! This week, Jeff leads an episode and discussion on HIV and how it was represented in the 90s. Jeff has been an HIV activist for over a decade, and with PRIDE this month, felt it was important to talk about how the world in the 90s viewed HIV and AIDS. We discuss our experiences growing up and now, talk pop culture moments that focused on HIV, and then Ally leads an episode review of season 3 episode 8 of the Real World: San Francisco. The episode primarily focused on Pedro, a cast member who contracted HIV and used his platform on MTV to educate the public. Andy then ends the episode with a Then and Now on Magic Johnson. Join us all June for more topics centering around the LGBTQ+ community in the 90s!***If you'd like to help in the fight against HIV and AIDS in finding a cure, we recommend donating to the Cascade AIDS Project here:https://www.capnw.org/donate***If you'd like to reach us you can do so via email at [email protected] or find us on social media!FacebookInstagramTwitter--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/notablenostalgia/message
