Note 1 = The NAMES Project, conceived by Cleve Jones, a close friend of Harvey Milk, is a massive quilt, the largest piece of folk art in the world, and each square is dedicated to someone who has died of AIDS. It was created during the height of the AIDS epidemic, in 1987, to raise awareness, and prompt legislative action. Note 2 = A second March on Washington for Lesbian and Gay Rights was organized. It was prompted by the AIDS crisis, the Reagan administration's lack of acknowledgement of the crisis, and the Supreme Court of the United States ruling in Bowers v. Hardwick upholding the criminalization of sodomy between two consenting men in the privacy of a home.
