Don’t Forget the Chapter on AIDS, AIDS Action Committee, 1980s
Using an iconic illustration by American artist Norman Rockwell, this poster stressed a reality of 1980s America: talking about sex meant talking about AIDS. The AAC hoped the image would make the conversation, and all of its potential awkwardness, feel familiar, normal, and necessary for white heterosexual parents.
