America’s oldest AIDS organization, Gay Men’s Health Crisis (GMHC), was founded In 1982 in response to government inaction against a disease that was ravaging the gay and bisexual communities at the time. The New York Public Library holds the records of GMHC. To mark the organization’s 40th anniversary Bill Goldstein moderates a cross-generation panel of writers—some who grew up during the crisis, others who have never known a world without AIDS—to reflect on its ongoing legacy in their lives and work.
