Poster
After a decade of life with AIDS, activists and public health officials turned to new opportunities to educate people in the 1990s. Some of the stigma and shame had given way to honesty and playfulness, shown in campaigns like “Men of the 90s” from the Whitman-Walker Clinic. The men pictured here are smiling, happy, and safe.
