AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power (ACT UP) is an international direct action advocacy group working to impact the lives of people with AIDS (PWAs). ACT UP/Boston was founded in 1987 as a way to focus local efforts in support of the development of AIDS treatments, AIDS educational programs, and AIDS prevention strategies. ACT UP/Boston works to effect changes in government and health care policies as well as medical research to address the AIDS crisis. In this photograph, ACT UP members are shouting or chanting while a uniformed police officer looks. The police officer is leaning on a file cabinet. The ACT UP members from left to right are: Warren Blumenfeld, an unidentified man, Patrick Santana, and Ted Karavidas in the ACT UP shirt.
