History

The Outrage of Danny Sotomayor: American Stories

Danny Sotomayor was a man on a mission. The fiery openly gay AIDS activist, political cartoonist, and organizer took to the streets, using civil disobedience to wage war on city officials who marginalized the LGBTQ community, and turned a blind eye to the AIDS crisis – all while fighting a losing battle with the disease himself. AMERICAN STORIES profiles a man who wouldn’t take no for an answer.
