Exhibition Highlights HIV Activism's Impact on Rights and Dignity
A new exhibition titled 'Tenderness and Rage' at the Wellcome Collection in London explores the impact of HIV activism on the rights and dignity of those affected by the disease. The exhibition features photographs, personal stories, and artifacts from the 1990s AIDS epidemic, highlighting the role of care and protest in improving conditions for people living with HIV. It includes a documentary on the Landmark, a drop-in center in London, and showcases the activism of groups like Act UP, which campaigned for affordable HIV medication. The exhibition also addresses the Wellcome Trust's historical involvement with the pharmaceutical company that produced AZT, the first successful HIV drug.
