  • サマリー

  • During the late 80's, Ryan White was the public face of AIDS. Ryan was a heterosexual teenage boy from Kokomo, Indiana who got HIV from infected blood products used to treat his hemophilia. His legal battle to be able to attend school after being diagnosed became a national sensation, and his case won the hearts and minds of middle Americans who had seen AIDS as a gay disease. This 1989 TV movie was a major part of Ryan White's legacy and shows just how culturally important TV Movies can be.

    Louis talks with his co-host Katie about her memories of growing up in Indiana during the peak years of Ryan White's fame. We look at how the city of Kokomo was negatively affected by this TV movie, how the real life story was actually worse than how its presented onscreen, Ryan's friendships with Elton John and Michael Jackson, his media narrative as an "innocent victim" of AIDS, and Ryan's lasting influence on HIV treatment.
