International AIDS groups have long been incensed that the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) has blocked the admission of people with AIDS and HIV disease to the U.S. Last year a Dutch health educator, Hans Paul Verhoef, was impris- oned when he tried to attend an AIDS conference in San Fran~isco. Despite the uproar that ensued, a similar incident took place months later when a Danish health worker was briefly halted at Logan Airport in Boston, and several more cases have been reported recently. Now: with the world's largest annual AIDS conference set for next June 'in San Francisco, national and international AIDS groups are furious that participants may be halted as they enter this country. The INS has responded by setting up a "waiver" system which allows HIV positives to enter the country for 30 days if they apply for and receive an INS waiver. But, as AIDS groups around the world point out, such a system is Kafkaesque in its absurdity. Applying for such a waiver breaches the confidentiali- ty which is at the base of good AIDS policy. While allowing a person brief entry to this country, it could subject the applicant to discrimination or quarantine upon returning horne and lead to the cancellation of the applicant's passport. But beyond the immediate consequences to partiCipants,such a system is inherently nonsensical. The U.S. has the world's largest AIDScaseload, and our gov~rnment is doing Virtuallynothing to stop the spread of HIV within our borders. Indeed, repressive foreign gov- ernments could manufacture more logical excuses for exclurling Americans on the grounds of our high rate of HIV infection than we could ever dig up for excluding their nationals from the U.S. And it's obvious that if it's safe to allow people with HIV into the country for 30 days, it's totally illogicalto exclude them generally. At any rate, AIDS experts universally reject restrictions on the free travel of HIV positives. And indeed they should. The world has little to gain, and much to lose, by any unnecessary bar to the free movement of peoples. According to INS officials, their waiver system is the furthest they can go without new legislation from Congress. Congressional sources tell us that with the implacable opposition . of Jesse Helms, any new legislation is Virtually impossible.

  • LGBTQ Organizations Unite in Calling for Transformational Change in Policing
    LGBTQ Organizations Unite in Calling for Transformational Change in Policing Black people have been killed, Black people are dying at the hands of police, our country is in crisis, and we all need to take action. We cannot sit on the sidelines, we cannot acquiesce, and we cannot assign responsibility to others. We, as leaders in the LGBTQ movement, must rise up and call for structural change, for divestment of police resources and reinvestment in communities, and for long-term transformational change. Now is the time to take action, and this letter amplifies our strong calls for urgent and immediate action to be taken. Ongoing police brutality and systemic racism have plagued this nation for generations and have been captured on video and laid bare to the public in the United States and around the world. In 2019, more than 1,000 people were killed at the hands of the police.1 We mourn the unacceptable and untimely deaths of Michael Brown, Tamir Rice, Sandra Bland, Philando Castile, Eric Garner, Stephon Clark, Freddie Gray, George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Mya Hall, Tony McDade, Rayshard Brooks, and many more who were gone too soon. We have seen with increased frequency the shocking video footage of police brutality. Officers have been recorded instigating violence, screaming obscenities, dragging individuals out of cars, using unnecessary force, holding individuals at gunpoint, and kneeling on peoples’ necks to the desperate plea of “I can’t breathe.” These occurrences are stark reminders of a police system that needs structural changes, deconstruction, and transformation. No one should fear for their lives when they are pulled over by the police.

    Queer Texts and the Cold War: How Nationalism and Domesticity Shaped U.S. Lesbian and Gay Writing, 1945-1960 A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Minnesota and the Department of American Studies by Angela E. Galik In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy June 2009 Dr. Edén Torres, Advisor Copyright © Angela E. Galik, June 2009. Acknowledgements The best part of completing this dissertation is that I get to reflect with joy and gratitude on the many people who have helped and supported me in my journey through graduate school, through the development and writing of the dissertation itself, and through all the surprises and transitions that Life came up with along the way. I offer my most sincere and humble thanks and appreciation to all of those people now, with the faith that if I accidentally forget to mention any names, my gratitude will nonetheless be felt by all who have contributed to my success. The faculty in American Studies and English (and a few other fields) with whom I have had the great privilege to work during my years at the University of Minnesota are truly beyond compare. I cannot imagine a more passionate, committed, brilliant group of professors. Most importantly and most remarkably, not only are the American Studies faculty accomplished and well-respected scholars, each and every one of them are also dedicated to graduate education and supportive of graduate students themselves. At every stage, I knew that I could trust my professors not only to challenge me, but also to help me to refine my thinking, polish my writing, expand my awareness, narrow my questions, own my arguments, and send my work out into the world.
