Leicester, a city in the English East Midlands, was among the most active centres of HIV/AIDS activism in the country. This lecture explores the efforts which were employed to reach men who had sex with men in Leicester, especially Black and Asian men. Not only did Black and Asian activists radically rethink how sexual health outreach could function, they also present us with new and more diverse ways of thinking about the history of HIV/AIDS.
