Scope and Contents
This series encompasses several posters Queer Nation utilized during protests and street demonstrations. One of them was presented at an event in Berlin, Germany, and it was written in German. The poster reads: "For the dissemination of information and discussion regarding approaches and perspectives of a gay and lesbian analysis and anti-fascist resistance." Another poster identifies David Geffen, Sandy Gallin and Barry Diller as detractors to the LGBT movement because of their support to anti-gay comedian Andrew Dice Clay. The poster claims that although the three moguls supported HIV /AIDS charities, their internal homophobia and support of LGBT bashing performers, caused more damage to the LGBT community. The other materials include generic anti-gay bashing posters, posters that "out" celebrities such as Jodie Foster and Tom Selleck, an anti-Oscars demonstration and a Latina-focused poster that urges Latina lesbians to stand up against racism, sexism and homophobia. This last one contains Spanish words.
