{"value"=>"<p>Lesbian activists and lesbians with AIDS meet in Washington, DC on the morning of April 23, 1993 with Secretary of Health and Human Services Donna Shalala to talk about problems of lesbians with AIDS. Several hundred protesters gather outside the meeting. Permission to videotape the meeting was denied until the lesbian activists demanded that their comments be documented.[~25 minute meeting with Shalala]</p> <p>Documented by Helene Schpak for DIVA TV [image tape quality problems noted].</p> <p>Excerpts from the ACT UP/NY Capsule History:</p> <div class=\"note\"> <p>This meeting was an early lesbian splinter-demonstration of ACT UP for the March on Washington (April 24 - 25, 1993). ACT UP staged a demonstration with more than 1,000 activists from across the country at the headquarters of the Pharmaceutical Manufacturer's Association, accusing the pharmaceutical industry of adhering to profit-driven research, price gouging, corporate secrecy and inaction while allowing people with AIDS to die. During the demonstration, activists scaled the building and hung bodies representing people with AIDS killed by drug company policies. ACT UP organized the Hands Around the Capitol event to draw attention to AIDS, and marched with other AIDS groups to the Mall, stopping for a \"die-in\" at the White House.</p></div>"}
