It's been likened to a plague, but AIDS never had a chance to be just a virus. The second in a series on grieving the death of a friend, Friend Grief and AIDS: Thirty Years of Burying Our Friends revisits a time when people with AIDS were also targets of bigotry and discrimination. In stories about Ryan White, ACT UP, the Names Project, red ribbons and more, you'll learn why friends made all the difference: not just caregiving and memorializing, but changing the way society confronts government agencies and the medical establishment to demand action. The 2017 second edition includes new resources, statistics and content.
