Children of the ’90s came of age when the conversation about AIDS was shifting from panic to activism and education. While standard sex ed classes certainly helped millions of young people understand the basics of HIV, AIDS, and safe sex, at the forefront of much of the public awareness were music, movies, tv shows, and sports. Here, a roundup of the key moments in pop culture that gave the AIDS epidemic a face and a context.
Salt N Pepa, “Let’s Talk About AIDS,” 1989
This is the first AIDS awareness campaign I remember. Salt N Pepa released an alternate version of “Let’s Talk About Sex” to make the fight against AIDS universal; the song had lyrics like “Don’t dismiss, dis, or blacklist the topic/That ain’t gonna stop it,” and “I got some news for you so listen, please/It’s not a black, white, or gay disease.” Later, they devoted a skit on one of their albums to the importance of safe sex in HIV prevention.

“Hey NYC! How can we make our city a greener, better place to live?”
That’s the first question that Change by Us NYC, which its creators call “a social network for civic activity,” is asking New Yorkers. The site, officially launched yesterday, is designed to be a forum for ideas and projects, dreamed up and initiated by citizens, that could improve life in a particular place. It’s being used as a more organized version of one of those big, messy cork boards found in coffee shops or on college campuses, where flyers pile up on each other. It’s also more interactive: Neighbors who once met briefly are recognizing each other and posting notes on each others’ projects and people with ideas for projects are receiving not only volunteers but suggestions on how to hone or expand their thinking.
