Today in LGBTQ History May 27, 2020: Author and LGBTQ rights activist, Larry Kramer, died. He wrote the screenplay for the film Women in Love, (1969) and a novel called Faggots (1978), which was denounced within the gay community for its portrayal of shallow, promiscuous sex in the 1970s. However, he is probably most remembered for founding the Gay Menβs Health Crisis (1980), which became the worldβs largest private organization assisting people with AIDS. And then cofounding the AIDS activist organization ACT UP (1987).
