The '''AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power''', or '''{{PAGENAME}}''' for short, is a political organization that was founded in March 1987 by Larry Kramer, Vito Russo, and Didier Lestrade to fight the [[HIV/AIDS pandemic]], while working to improve the lives of people with the disease through medical research, treatment, advocacy, and direct action. They also fought to change legislation and public policies that were directly affecting those with the disease.

In June 1987, Northwest Orient Airlines barred people with AIDS from boarding their flights or traveling with their airline. The ACT UP group protested outside their New York City offices and brough two lawsuits against the airline. Because of these actions, the policy was reversed.

In hindsight,
Of course I knew I was tripping over myself.

Blathering blasphemy
So that people might like me,
Only to be met with awkward stares—
A sinking feeling that

No one really cares,
About snitches and stitches.

Pretty faces distract from
The fact that I don’t rat them
out—
side,
It’s cooler than in
This stuffy room, I’ve been

Drinking in the sight of
The sun at dawn and dusk.
Somedays, I fear that my body
Is no more than a husk, that cradles
My empty feelings,
My blandish words.
My motivation,
Clear as a blur.

I fall short in every category;
Don’t blame me for not reaching for the stars.

When night falls, and midnight breathes
Into the sky and out again,
I’m alone once more.
Though I try to pretend
I’m not.
