  • Summary

  • An all-American mum dropped a bombshell on the Republican National Congress in 1992. Mary Fisher stood before the thousands of people and revealed she had HIV. At the time sufferers were rebuked, ostracised and blamed for the epidemic. And so it was that Mary Fisher smashed the message through to the political establishment that the epidemic was facing all of America.
