From Where We Stood: AIDS and the Culture Wars
Cleveland has a very rich story to tell about the AIDS crisis and the political battles. Our documentary will give previously unheard voices an opportunity to tell local their stories, in the national fight for LGBT equality.
Using both archival and contemporary footage “From Where We Stood: AIDS and the Culture Wars” reflects the LGBT history of 80s and 90s in the US, and gives a state-of-the-movement perspective at both the local and national level during the era.
Particular focus is given to the Midwest, including Cleveland, and New Orleans in the South. The film relects the nation’s climate of homophobia; the lack of civil rights protections; the lack of AIDS funding and support, and the constant physical and media attacks, orchestrated by the radical right.
In every city heroes emerged - these are just some of their stories.
the steps
Interviews are scheduled for July and August 2022 in Cleveland and October in New Orleans.
why we're doing it
LGBT+ voices have been consistently buried or erased from history.
The LGBT Legacy Project is part of a growing movement to find and preserve LGBT history and historical documents, so that queer voices can tell their own stories, from the past and into to the future.
The documentary will give previously unheard voices from the Midwest and the South, an opportunity to tell local stories, in the national fight for LGBT equality. In every city heroes emerged. We are preserving some of their stories.
