My podcast discusses and criticizes queer art on the topic of HIV/AIDS.

    Why are ‘Angels in America’ and ‘The Normal Heart’ Still the Most Prominent Stories About AIDS?

    Why are ‘Angels in America’ and ‘The Normal Heart’ Still the Most Prominent Stories About AIDS?

    In this podcast episode, I discuss two of the most famous works of queer art to come out of the early AIDS epidemic, the plays ‘The Normal Heart’ by Larry Kramer and ‘Angels in America: A Gay Fantasia on National Themes’ by Tony Kushner. I provide context about the plays and playwrights, discuss how the themes of the plays connect and diverge, and offer my criticisms of the white-centric nature of these stories and of the fact that they still remain the most prominent stories about AIDS.
