Kevin Jennings "Acting Up!"

Last week, the Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts and Harvard University  opened an exhibition entitled ACT UP New York; Activism, Art, and the AIDS Crisis, 1987-1993.

According to the Harvard Art Museum’s press release, the exhibition chronicles New York’s AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power (ACT UP) through an examination of compelling graphics created by various artist collectives that populated the group.

Given this exhibition's use of a poster (above) comparing Catholic Cardinal John O'Connor to a used condom, I would venture to say that Harvard University's press release describing this exhinition as, "an examination of compelling graphics"  is somewhat of an understatement.

Ppage 3 of Harvard Universitiy's press release for this exhibition lists the sposnors of this event as:

ACT UP New York: Activism, Art, and the AIDS Crisis, 1987-1993 has been made possible by support from The Office of the Provost at Harvard University and the following endowment funds at the Harvard Art Museum: The Agnes Gund Fund for Modern and Contemporary Art; the Alexander S., Robert L., and Bruce A. Beal Exhibition Fund; the M. Victor Leventritt Lecture Fund; and the Charlotte F. and Irving W. Rabb Exhibition Fund. Gifts and grants have also been provided by The Barbara Lee Family Foundation; The Open Gate: a Fund for Gay and Lesbian Life at Harvard University; Fred P. Hochberg and Tom Healy; Kevin Jennings; the Harvard College Women's Center, the Office for the Arts at Harvard, and Harvard Technology Services with special support from Apple Inc.

Kevin Jennings?

Yes, that's the very same Kevin Jennings who is our "Safe Schools Czar!" courtesy of President Barrack Obama!  Of course this is the same Kevin Jennings who publicly stated that he was inspired by one of the biggest promoters of pedophilia in the country—Harry Hay. Hay actively promoted sex between men and boys and supported the North American Man Boy Love Association (NAMBLA).

For a more complete description of the compelling graphics offered by this Harvard University exhibit visit Mass Resistance but be warned that the graphics are much cruder than the one of Cardinal O'Connor posted above.

Of course the mainstream media, busy as ever promoting the President's Health Care Plan,  has yet to address the appropriateness of this individual being placed in a position of influenece affecting our children in public schools throughout the country.  Remember Van Jones, our short lived "Green Jobs Czar" and John P. Holdren who still holds the position as Obama's "Science Czar?"

Hows all that "Hope and Change" working out for all of you?
