Rereading a Heroic Legacy: How AIDS Built the LGBT Equality Movement Online Event - Registration Required
In celebration of Open Access Week, the University of Chicago Library will host a webinar on October 24 featuring author John-Manuel Andriote discussing why he chooses to prioritize community over commercialization by granting open access to his book, Victory Deferred: How AIDS Changed Gay Life in America. To mark the book’s 25th anniversary, Andriote as the rightsholder has chosen to turn Victory Deferred into an open access book for anyone around the world. He explains, “The value of Victory Deferred to the LGBT and broader American community—in its many accounts and insights from firsthand interviews with heroes and pioneers in the HIV-AIDS epidemic and the LGBT equality movement—exceeds my own commercial interests in the book.” Please join us for a discussion of why open access to an award-winning title matters societally and intellectually, especially in the face of continuing oppression against the fight for equality.
Free and open to the public. Available online via Zoom. Registration required.
