The Buffalo State Pride Alliance and the Counseling Center will present a display of Mending of the Hearts Quilt Memorial panels to honor those lost to HIV/AIDS on Monday, April 7, from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. in the Campbell Student Union Assembly Hall. Hearts Quilt Memorial panels were provided by Evergreen Health Services.
Two screenings of United in Anger: A History of ACT UP, an inspiring documentary by Jim Hubbard about the birth and life of the AIDS activist movement, will be shown in the Assembly Hall at noon and 4:00 p.m. Using oral histories of ACT UP members as well as rare archival footage, the film depicts the movement's efforts from the perspective of the people in the trenches fighting the epidemic, as they battle corporate greed, social indifference, and government neglect.
HIV testing by Evergreen Health Services.
Mending of the Hearts: Honor our past; protect our future.
Funding provided by a grant from the Faculty-Student Association Founders Fund. Sponsored by Buffalo State Pride Alliance and the Counseling Center.
