It highlights how both organizations initially shared common goals but faced significant challenges in collaboration due to differing perspectives on race, class, and the political etiology of AIDS. The article argues that while Act Up–Paris sought to unify various marginalized groups under a common front, Migrants Against AIDS emphasized the unique struggles of migrants and critiqued the dominance of white, middle-class gay men in the AIDS movement. Ultimately, the tensions between the two groups reflect broader social divides and the complexities of coalition-building among diverse activist communities in France. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Journal of the History of Sexuality is the property of and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites or posted to a listserv without the copyright holder's express written permission.
