Lessons from ACT UP for Today's Solidarity Movements

Lessons from ACT UP for Today's Solidarity Movements

Sarah Schulman and Sarah Leonard speak in this session recorded at Socialism 2025.

Everyone is under attack, and lessons from previous movements can stimulate our imaginations and the creation of new strategies and tactics. The successes of ACT UP (The AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power) 1987-1993, are not a blueprint, but they can inform our thinking. Sarah Schulman and Jim Hubbard interviewed 188 surviving members of ACT UP, NY over 18 years and cohered their work into Jim's film UNITED IN ANGER: A History of ACT UP, and Sarah's book LET THE RECORD SHOW. Schulman will summarize the context, successes, and the tactics that worked and lead a conversation about how we can best understand this material in light of today's crisis.

The next Socialism Conference will be held in Chicago, September 4-7, 2026. Learn more about the Socialism Conference at www.socialismconference.org.
