  12. HIV/AIDS Activism and Historical Memory The original founding of ACT UP is now as distant from usas 1987 was from Selma. Collective understanding of the Civil Rights Movement did not really clarify until 20-25 years after its peak in 1963. First federal MLK Day held in 1986 “Eyes on the Prize” documentary series part I, released in 1987 “America in the King Years” trilogy begun in 1989
