Jesus.

There’s a reason why so many LGBT leaders from that era are women. 

And there’s a reason why gay culture essentially had to reboot itself. 

and there’s a reason saying ‘you’ll survive’ is bullshit.

There is a current, ongoing HIV/AIDS crisis in gay black men.

Saying “well we survived Regan” and “well we survived Bush” is bullshit.

Maybe *you* survived, but *we* didn’t. Not all of us. Not enough of us.

Anyway please continue to be very loud about the fact that the AIDS epidemic isn’t over, that it’s disproportionately harmful to gay black men, and that the current administration is doing everything that it possibly can to ignore it.
