Come to our first ever live show! In Boston, on Friday, September 13th. Tickets are available now!
It's August 29th. This day in 1987, an arson burns down the house of the Ray brothers, three HIV-positive children who had contracted the virus through blood transfusions.
Jody, NIki, and Kellie are joined by Eric Marcus of "Making Gay History" project to discuss why there was so much fear and ignorance around AIDS in that era -- and how even children became targets of abuse.
Be sure to check out "Making Gay History's" incredible archive of podcasts, documentaries, and writing.
