Kate Barnhart at ACT UP at 30 Conference Youth Panel
Tonight we’ll hear about the work of ACT UP’s Youth Empowerment Lifeline, or YELL for short, which organized in the 1980s and 1990s. We’ll also listen to a presentation about the current-day youth caucus of ACT UP/NY. Both talks were part of the youth panel at a conference in June called, 30 Years of ACT UP/NY: Hidden Histories and Voices, Lessons Learned. Out-FM co-organized the conference with ACT UP and was it’s media sponsor. John Riley produced the segment. Out-FM co-host Naomi Brussel was a moderator at the conference and introduces the two speakers.
