Jasmine: what brought you here?
Amber: I have been a Marxist since the 60s and 70. In that period, it was not unlikely to be queer and a commie. But once the movement professionalized or disappeared, it became more and more difficult to be a radical

Amber: The sex wars were also a difficult front. Ended up doing AIDS work, bc it wanted my experience. Ran the lesbian AIDS project, left to do queer aging work, took over Queers for Economic Justice until it had to close for lack of funding.
