Queer Panels: Comics & the AIDS Crisis
Comics have a long history in health education and political activism. From the first public mention of what would come to be known as AIDS (1981) to the present day, community response to HIV frequently takes comic form. This lecture will look at the role comics have historically played in response to HIV/AIDS and gesture to the future of AIDS and comics.
