This collection features several posters documenting the AIDS awareness movement from the 80's to the present to educate people about the HIV/AIDS epidemic and prevent its spread in various countries of the world. Nations currently represented in the collection are Brazil, Germany, United States, and South Africa.

The posters in this collection were created by students for a project answering the question "What is Queer?" The project was part of Dr. Steve Butterman's Queer Studies class at the University of Miami. The posters in the collection present a variety of visual and textual representation of the students' interpretations of what it means to be queer, ranging in focus from familial concerns and sexual health/HIV to media representation, politics, and fashion. Many of the posters discuss the history of the use of  the term "queer" and question the idea of a single definition of queer.
