I was a child when AIDS was emerging. One of the first news stories I remember is Ryan White, a young child who contacted AIDS and forced the government and society to realize it wasn't just a "gay disease". It is heart wrenching and enlightening learning more about something I remember mostly as panic and handwringing. The severity of the epidemic was easy to ignore as long as the people who were mostly effected by it were those that main stream society preferred to ignore. Until it could no longer be ignored. This podcast reminds us how we were forced to pay attention to AIDS and find a way to treat it better.

Where are the voices of transgender people in this story? Where are the bisexual people? Where are the voices of people who are so often overlooked when we talk about health care issues? We've literally always been here. Everyone in this story has been either straight or gay or cisgender. A person interviewed said something about skewing the data. Well, what are y'all doing?

lgbtq+ people?????
