City Council on Alternative Families, 1986
Abstract: Recording of two public hearings of the Madison Common Council. First is on the 1987 Executive Budget, which proposed extending city employee health insurance benefits to "alternative families" including gay or lesbian couples. The recording skips testimony not about the Alternative Families Amendment. The meeting is led by City of Madison Mayor Joseph Sensenbrenner, who calls members of the public to speak in support or against the proposed budget. Janet Wright and police officer Cheri Maples, a lesbian couple with four children, speak in support of the measures, arguing that they are considered a family by the government when it would penalize them but not when it benefits them. Unknown speaker Alex, a lesbian city employee with a partner and two children, speaks in support of the amendment. John Hendrick speaks in support on behalf of the Madison Institute for Social Legislation, framing the issue as a basic civil rights issue that will not have a significant fiscal impact on the city. John Neese speaks in favor on behalf of the social service organization United. The tape then cuts to a separate city council meeting where a broader alternative families ordinance is being considered. The hearing is led by Council President Alderman Ron Trachtenberg Four ordinances are being considered, one more broad one dealing with zoning and three separate ones dealing with public accommodations, health insurance for city employees, and sick/bereavement leave. Unknown gay man who works with the Fair Housing Council of Dane County speaks in support of three of the four ordinances but against the housing ordinance as it does not give "alternative families" equal treatment to married heterosexual couples. Gay public official Richard Wagner speaks in support of all ordinances. Straight married woman Karen Worth speaks in support of the ordinances, drawing a parallel between opposition to the ordinance and opposition to anti-racist civil rights ordinances. Unknown lesbian woman speaks in support, arguing that she subsidizes traditional families and pointing out that under current Madison law Jesus could not rent a house with his 12 apostles. Jerri-Linn Phillips speaks in support, offering a petition of those in support. She argues that the ordinance does not define or form families, and the only reason the ordinances describe families is because of city bureaucracy. Unknown person Thomas speaks in support, arguing that the nuclear family is a recent invention and a family is characterized by love and support more than composition. John Hendrick again speaks in support, this time on behalf of the Marquette Neighborhood Association. Cathy Canavan then speaks in support, offering her experience as a lesbian police officer. Jean King speaks in support, reminding people that gays and lesbians will not be the only ones benefited by the ordinance and explaining her own living situation. Robert Klimko, a UW-Madison graduate student, speaks in support, explaining that democratic societies are obligated to not discriminate based on religious beliefs. After the testimony, the meeting moves to voting on the proposed measures, the meeting being led by Mayor Sensenbrenner. Alderman Trachtenberg speaks in support of the zoning rule and bereavement leave, and against the other two measures. Alderwoman God. Alderman Warren Onken opposes the measures on religious grounds. Alderman Larry Olson opposes the measure on similar grounds. Roll call votes are taken. Public accommodations requiring a household rate equivalent to a family rate for memberships didn't pass with 9 yes votes and 11 no votes. Bereavement leave for city employees with "alternative families" passed 15 to 5. Zoning rule to allow multiple adults with children to reside in single-family housing passed 15 to 5. Health insurance rule was "placed on file."

Perspectives that transform: little local gay history, 1987
Abstract: A recording of an interview about George Segel's "Gay Liberation" sculpture. Tom Garver, former Director of the Madison Art Center, is interviewed by David Runyon about how Madison obtained the sculpture. Garver notes that several cities were offered the sculpture, including New York City, but it was not placed because its title was considered controversial. The Mildred Andrews Fund offered the City of Madison and the Madison Arts Center funding to place the piece on display in a public park after the originally intended site in New York City declined an offer. Madison was selected because Wisconsin was the only state at the time with a statute banning discrimination against gay and lesbian people, and Madison was viewed as an accepting city. Garver discusses both positive and negative feedback the center received after the sculpture was installed.

Shalala + ROTC vs GAY's = Opportunity, 1988
Abstract: Recording of a meeting of the University of Wisconsin Faculty Senate including the first appearance of Donna Shalala as University of Wisconsin-Madison Chancellor and a debate over the Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) presence on campus, given the discrimination faced by gays in the US Military. The meeting opens with a speech by Shalala where she emphasizes the necessity of maintaining the UW system as a first-class institution, and the role of maintaining a diverse and welcoming campus. Discussion on the ROTC begins with statements from eight students. First is student Richard [unidentified surname], who speaks against the ROTC. Next is unidentified ROTC member Eric, who speaks in support of the ROTC. Next is Robb McGinnis, who speaks against the ROTC. Next is unidentified ROTC member Caroline? Anderson, who speaks in support of ROTC. Next speaker is student and former Board of Regents member John Schenian, who speaks against the ROTC. Next is student [unidentified name] who speaks in support of ROTC. Next is recent graduate Allison [unidentified surname], who speaks against ROTC. Next comes a report from a committee presented by professor [unidentified first name] Bauer. Bauer explains the committee examined the issue from all sides for more than a year. Professor Norman Fost gives the recommendations of the committee, speaking in support of renegotiating the university's contract with ROTC to eliminate discrimination based on sexual orientation or presenting a legal challenge to it. Unidentified professor Fowler? presents an alternate resolution that would retain the ROTC while reaffirming its commitment to nondiscrimination. Professor Edward Coffman speaks in favor of it, arguing that no one has the explicit right to serve in the military, and that ROTC graduates make up a substantial portion of the active officer corps. Gordon Baldwin, a lawyer, argues that the military only discriminates on the basis of homosexual conduct, not sexual orientation, and that it would be impractical to develop an alternative military science program to comply with the provisions of the Land Grant Act. Foss replies to Coffman and Baldwin, arguing against their points. Next is Don Nichols, who argues that it is almost impossible for the university to change Military policy, especially since no other school had ended their partnership with ROTC. He argues against hasty action and argues for a full examination of the implications is necessary. A vote is called and the substitute amendment passes. Unidentified person asks what the original report means when it recommends the faculty senate take political action. A different unidentified person speaks against taking action against ROTC, arguing that any student can sue the military if they feel discriminated against. Next to speak is Robert Kimbrough, a retired Marine Corps Colonel and current English professor. He says that some of the best people he served with were homosexuals, and that the university has the responsibility to stick to its principles and not allow discrimination on its campus. Unidentified professor Friedman? argues the university should make a strong statement against discrimination as they cannot really settle the question of whether ROTC stays on campus. A vote is called and the weaker resolution fails, and the stronger resolution succeeds.

ROTCs BS Discrimination gets shovelled out of stock pavilion by UW-Madison Faculty Senate, 1989
Abstract: Recording of a meeting of the UW-Madison Faculty Senate addressing the Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) discrimination against gay and lesbian students. The meeting is presided over by Chancellor Donna Edna Shalala. Shalala provides the background of a 1987 resolution by the Faculty Senate calling for the renegotiating of the contract with ROTC to remove its discrimination against gay and lesbian students, or the termination of the contract. Unidentified faculty member explains the procedure for the debate on the issue. First speaker is professor Joseph Elder, who explains the University's obligation to oppose discrimination, that the ROTC discriminates, and that the meeting will decide which steps the Senate will recommend the Board of Regents take to address the issue. Elder argues that the ROTC discrimination portrays homosexual students and faculty as less worthy and excludes them from its program, including academic classes. Elder argues that this is unacceptable given the University's stated obligation to not tolerate discrimination on campus, and that the contract between the University and ROTC should be terminated if the military does not change its policy. Next speaker is professor Gordon Baldwin, who argues against the motion. Baldwin argues that the University cannot change the policy of the military, and should avoid making a political statement. He also argues that the absence of the ROTC program will make the University less competitive in attracting applicants, and that the presence of ROTC students on campus is beneficial. Student Jordan Marsh, a member of the Wisconsin Student Association, speaks in favor, arguing that the faculty as teachers and role models have an obligation to stand up for their values and take action. ROTC student David Banholzer speaks against, arguing that the ROTC is a valuable program and is not the presence of the military on campus, but rather the campus in the military. David Wilcox, representing the campus Ten Percent Society, speaks in favor, arguing that the military's denial of scholarships and career opportunities to gays and lesbians has real consequences and cannot be tolerated. Student and naval reserve member Tina Schroeder speaks against, arguing that the ROTC has a positive impact on both the campus and the students enrolled in it. Professor Donald Nichols offers an amendment that would recommend phasing out the ROTC starting in 1993 if a vote by the faculty senate then confirms that the level of discrimination is still unacceptable. He argues that this compromise will hopefully allow the University to keep the ROTC without the discrimination and give the military a chance to change their policy. Professor Michael Olneck speaks against the amendment, saying that it is unnecessary and less forceful, and the amendment implies that some level of discrimination is acceptable. Professor James Taylor speaks in favor of the amendment, arguing that the original motion prematurely terminates the ROTC and that another vote in 1993 would enable more discussion and lobbying to take place. Professor Claudia Card speaks in favor of the original motion, arguing that tolerating the discrimination undermines the University's mission and policies, and is a disgrace. Professor Edward Coffman speaks against the motion, arguing in favor of ROTC. Professor Michael Kimball(?) speaks next, arguing that the discrimination by the ROTC is the only material detail, giving the example of a fully paid for South African Studies department that would only admit white people. Professor John Schwib(?) speaks next, arguing from his experience as both a professor and reservist that civilian university education is important for officers and that the ROTC should not be discarded. Professor Norman Frost speaks in favor of the resolution, arguing that the university is selling its soul if it tolerates ROTC discrimination. An unidentified professor speaks in favor, revealing that behind closed doors the ROTC is much more homophobic than their public statements. Professor Leonard Weiss speaks to his positive experience in the ROTC in the 40s. Professor John Martin speaks in favor of the ROTC. Professor Joe [unidentified surname] speaks in favor of the resolution, arguing that this is a clear case of discrimination with a simple remedy. The faculty then votes. The amendment is defeated. The original resolution passes 386-240. This is followed by news footage from the next day reporting on the event.

They also discuss the societal divisions of male and female, and how they are extremely fuzzy and arbitrary. They also discuss the importance of the connection between trans and gay communities and how their political struggles are intertwined. The workshop includes demonstration of drag techniques and participants are encouraged to try on provided women's clothing.

UW Regents Part One ROTC, 1990
Abstract: Recording of a University of Wisconsin Regent's meeting on February 2, 1990. The episode focuses on the debate on whether to allow the Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) to continuing operating on campus in light of the military's ban on gay service members. Board President Paul Schilling calls the meeting to order. University of Wisconsin System President Kenneth Shaw starts the discussion by simultaneously affirming his commitment to nondiscrimination but also keeping the ROTC on campus. Schilling opens the floor to public comment. Professor Joseph Elder, co-chair of the Faculty Against Discrimination in University Programs, is first to speak, asking for more action to pressure the military and a deadline for changes to be implemented when the ROTC would be ended if they were not addressed. Professor Gordon Baldwin, director of the ROTC Officer Education Programs, urges the retaining of the ROTC, arguing that ending it would not help any gay or lesbian student get into the military and argues that starting a "clock" would kill the program from lack of enrollment. Robb McGinnis, from the United Council of UW Student Governments, speaks next, calling for the phase-out of ROTC programs, arguing that the university has a duty to take a strong stand for civil rights, and that "working within the system" was a cop-out. Steve Myrah of the Academic Staff Assembly then spoke, arguing that universities have more power over DoD policy if they participate in ROTC than if they don't. Jordan Marsh of the Wisconsin Student Association then spoke, arguing that retaining ROTC is essentially sanctioning its bigotry, and that nothing short of disaffiliation would have an impact on DoD policy. Attorney and veteran Jack DeWitt spoke next, arguing in favor of retaining ROTC. Tim Longman of the Inclusion Coalition spoke next, arguing for putting a time limit on the ROTC to change its policy. Professor John Neese spoke next, arguing that retaining the ROTC would retain a culture of stigmatization and bigotry against gay and lesbian students. Dave Wilcox of the Ten Percent Society spoke next, arguing for disaffiliation and doubting that the ROTC would be willing to aid in ending discrimination, as no cadets Wilcox had spoken to favored a change in policy. Bill Kingsbury, also of the Ten Percent Society, spoke next, expressing concern that continuing discrimination against gays and lesbians in the military could embolden more forms of discrimination. Meg Gaines, Dean of Students' Gay and Lesbian Issues Committee member, argued that gay and lesbian students cannot reach their full potential in an environment where discrimination is tolerated. Reverend Max Gaebler spoke next, arguing that the University's current position is the most effective one to promote change and that there is no moral high ground in pursuing self-defeating tactics. Laura Mamo of the Campus Women's Center spoke next, arguing in favor of disaffiliation. David Raine, an ROTC member, next speaks in favor of retaining the ROTC. David Banholzer, also an ROTC member, next speaks in favor of retaining the ROTC program, explaining its positive impact on members and the positive influence of a civilian education on military officers. After the public comments the board of regents begins internal discussion. Regent Lee Dreyfus speaks strongly in favor of the ROTC. Regent Esther Doughty Luckhardt also speaks in favor of the ROTC. Regent Albert Nicholas supports ROTC. Regent Ness Flores speaks against the ROTC. Regent Erroll Davis Jr. argued that disaffiliating with ROTC while having major diversity issues in the university system itself would not address any issue and would be hypocritical, and proposed remedies that could be applied across the board. Regent Obert Vattendahl opposed the ROTC. Regent Ruth Clusen clarified that any decision on the ROTC was not being influenced by money, as the value of the ROTC scholarships are minor in university finances. Episode then instructs viewer to switch to tape two.

UW Regents Part Two ROTC, 1990
Abstract: Part two of an episode covering the UW Board of Regents meeting on February 2, 1990, concerning the Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) presence on campus and their policy of excluding gay people from the military. Regent Ness Flores argues that the compromise resolution, which affirms UW's commitment to equality for gays while also recommending the ROTC be allowed to stay on campus, is self-contradictory. Board President Schilling tries to mediate and Regent Doughty-Luckhardt offers to split the resolution in two. Flores states that effectively ROTC is being allowed an exception to the policy against discrimination, whereas Regent Erroll Davis Jr. argues the opposite. Regent Ruth Clusen argues that ROTC being a federal program enables it to be above the university policy. Schilling calls for a vote on the resolution, which does not disaffiliate with the ROTC program but does commit to advocating for the end of discrimination in the military. The resolution passes 13 to 3. The episode then cuts to several news segments covering the controversy. The first is a CBS sponsored debate between two UW Madison students on the issue. Next is coverage of the faculty senate meeting which recommended disaffiliation with the ROTC. Finally is a Wisc-3 segment on the issue featuring interviews with ROTC members and faculty. The episode ends with several screens of text by David Runyon arguing that the controversy distracts from the more important issue of the US military being a vehicle of oppression worldwide.

Straight-Up from UW-Whitewater: ROTC and Gays AND Winnipeg Media Collective: Children's Literature Coming Out, 1990
Abstract: Recording of an episode of University of Wisconsin-Whitewater TV show "Straight Up" discussing the recent controversy over the Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) discrimination against gays and whether the organization should be removed from campus. The show is hosted by Sheila Finnegan, and Robb McGinnis - who serves on the United Student Council - appears as a special guest. Finnegan interviews McGinnis and also lets the student audience ask questions. McGinnis clarifies his position against ROTC discrimination and advocates for the deadline of 1993 set for the military to cease discrimination against gays, as well as expressing frustration that UW System President Shaw has not lobbied harder on the issue. Several current or former ROTC cadets in the audience argue that ROTC should remain and directly argue in favor of discrimination against gays as a necessity in the military. McGinnis draws a parallel between the issue and the ending of racial segregation in the military. The second segment comes from a Canadian television program called "Coming Out" which discusses gay and lesbian issues. The Coming Out episode contains several animated shorts illustrating children's stories promoting self-acceptance and free expression.

Roger Young on Codependency and Shame, 1990
Abstract: Recording of a workshop by Roger Young on codependency and shame given at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater. The program is part of a series of workshops on topics related to psychological development and addiction. The workshop is introduced by Mary Wagner. Young starts with a discussion of shame, beginning by having the audience distinguish it from guilt. Young broadly distinguishes them by shame as "I am" vs. guilt as "I did." Young argues that coping strategies such as forgiveness that work for guilt often do not work for shame. Young identifies disrespect, humiliation and culture as sources of shame. He then identifies shame as a process that leads one to establish a "false self" after a rejection of the "true self." Young also discusses codependency as a coping strategy for shame, and how childhood experiences influence it.

Tim Tillotson HIV, 16 August 1990
Abstract: Interview with Tim Tillotson, program manager at the University Health Service Blue Bus clinic. Tillotson explains the history of Blue Bus and its role as a STD clinic serving the whole community. He then goes into its HIV program, which includes antibody testing and counseling. He explains that HIV tests cannot guarantee a negative result, especially if exposure has occurred in the few months before the test. The clinic also provides risk reduction counseling. Tillotson argues that inconsistent condom use can be mitigated, and can be broken into categories of physical barriers, e.g. reduced sensation, and mental barriers, e.g. an interruption in the sex experience. He explains that the use of lubrication and experimentation to find an appropriate condom size can mitigate physical barriers. He also explains that an ongoing sexual relationship with someone with HIV is not a guarantee of infection and the risk can be significantly mitigated with condom use. Tillotson also argues that diets or supplements that claim to treat HIV do not work. For treatment information, he recommends the publication "Treatment Issues" published by the Gay Men's Health Crisis organization. Tillotson also addresses the issues and mechanisms involved in development of treatments for HIV/AIDS, as well as the development of a new enzyme that could possibly prevent infection. He concludes by giving the Blue Bus clinic's outreach and testing schedule for 1990.

George Mosse, Professor Retired UW-Madison: "Why Gay History?" 1990
Abstract: Two episodes one tape. Episode one is recording of a rock concert, possibly connected with HIV/AIDS prevention. Episode two is recording of a lecture at University of Wisconsin - Madison by retired professor George Mosse titled: "Why gay history? Why not?" Mosse is introduced by German Professor Jim Steakley. Mosse starts by reminding that gays have a long history, including but not limited to the ancient Greeks. He ties the Civil Rights Movement to the development of gay history studies, along with Black history and women's history. Mosse ties together the development of nationalism, modernity, and manliness at the beginning of the 19th century, and the positioning of homosexualiy as a societal "countertype" to the ideal of manly virility, youth, and decisiveness. He also discusses the shift from religion defining homosexuality to medicine, particularly in the enforcement of anti-gay laws. Mosse discusses the reaction of gays and lesbians to this social pressure in the 19th century and argues that this conception of manliness and the maintenance of strict gender roles and binarism are the main enemies of gay liberation. This talk is followed by an audio only discussion between Mosse and the attendees, overlayed with nature footage.

BWMT 1990 San Francisco : Art, Eroticism, pornography, playing to obsessions: censorship 1990
Abstract: Recording of a workshop from the National Conference of Black and White Men Together 1990 held in San Francisco. The seminar is titled "Censorship in the Arts: Art, Obscenity, and Artistic Expression" and is hosted by Robert Finney, with San Francisco gay activist Douglas Conrad and unidentified man Jackson as co-hosts. The presentation shows and discusses the history of gay pornography from ancient Greece to the modern day, along with the history of censorship of pornography in the United States. They also discuss the connection between pornography and art, and the connection between both and exploitation. This includes pictures of magazines in the International Gay and Lesbian Archives. Finney shows that gay pornographic magazines in the 1940s and 50s intentionally imitated ancient roman poses and figures to avoid censorship, under the guise of bodybuilding. He also traces the development of more explicit images after a Supreme Court ruling legalized depiction of frontal nudity. He also discusses the role of race in pornography and depictions of Black men. Finney argues that models are being exploited and underpaid by the industry, with profits almost entirely going to the distributors, while also arguing that the audiences "hidden needs" are being exploited to sell pornography. They also discuss how censorship of pornography is being expanded to cover all depictions of gayness, and how it stifles artistic expression.

Gregory Herek, AIDS Psychosocial Research Group, UC-Davis, part of UW-Milwaukee Gay/Lesbian Awareness Week 1991
Abstract: Recording of a lecture by Dr. Gregory Herek, a research psychologist at the University of California - Davis focusing on anti-gay prejudice. The lecture was held at the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee as part of a gay-lesbian awareness week. Unidentified professor introduces Herek, who begins by sharing accounts of anti-gay violence and murder. Herek argues that "homophobia" is an imprecise word for describing anti-gay prejudice, both because it reduces that prejudice to an irrational fear and portrays it as a problem rooted in individual psychology rather than broader culture. Herek argues that the ideology of cultural heterosexism is built on the ideology of sexuality, which defines gay people in terms of their sexuality and sees any public acknowledgement of gayness as inherently inappropriate, and the ideology of gender roles. Herek then explores how people internalize this cultural ideology, arguing that the invisibility of gayness leaves children only exposed to "normal" heterosexism. Herek further argues that personal heterosexism can be expressed simply as a means to an end, whether affirming a larger set of values (e.g. being a "good Christian") or gaining social favor and acceptance by identifying gay people as "outsides," leaving them as one of the "insiders." Herek ties these motivations to incidents of anti-gay violence. Herek also discusses the complex effects of the AIDS epidemic on American public opinion toward gayness. The lecture is followed by a question and answer period.

In the Trenches with Rita - Turville Point II, 1991
Abstract: Two episodes one tape. Episode 1 is an episode of "In the Trenches" with Rita Wlodarczyk focusing on community efforts to alter a city plan to uproot part of Turville Point park to make room for a swimming pool. Rita discusses the issue with four community activists involved in the conservation effort. Ron Shutvet gives an overview of three proposed pool sites including the one in Turville Park that the City Council initially decided on. Marge Colson says that the initial pool committee was formed in 1989 and did not seek any public feedback when considering sites. Shutvet says that the Turville location was not considered until late in the process and then swiftly approved. Steve Loeffler speculates that it had been considered privately for some time and unveiled late in the process to minimize public backlash. Jane Eisley reveals that outside consultants were brought in but their advice was ignored. After more conversation Rita and the activists go to the park site. They look at the trees that will be removed and the address the overcrowded parking situation. They also see the busy street that people will have to cross to get to the pool site. Episode 2 is an episode of "In the Trenches" with Rita Wlodarczyk interviewing David Zakem, an activist and Peace Corps worker who has spent the last few years living in Belize and Guatemala. Zakem talks about the shift toward democracy in Guatemala that hasn't gotten a lot of attention in the United States, and discusses his experiences working with the indigenous population and the repression they face from the Guatemalan military.

Flaunting It! UW Madison: Thomas Yinling; Gay Studies: Commodity and Desire, 1991
Abstract: Recording of a presentation made at "Flaunting It!," the first National Graduate Student Conference on Lesbian and Gay Studies, held at the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee. Thomas Piontek, a professor and conference organizer, introduces the conference and gives a short history of its organization. He then introduces co-organizer and professor Cheryl Kader. Kader details the unique challenges of organizing a gay studies conference and the backlash they received, as well as the promise of the conference's impact. After some announcements Piontek then introduces the keynote speaker, Thomas Yingling. Yingling presents a paper he wrote entitled "Gay Studies Against the Law." Yingling argues that the recent formalization of gay and lesbian studies should be approached with care, noting that reducing it to the study of "the homosexual" is itself a totalizing and ultimately futile pursuit that will never complete a full picture. Drawing on Foucault, Yingling also warns that the definition of "the homosexual" is marked by its relation to oppression and government criminalization. Yingling also discusses the impact of AIDS on gay identity and on how people living with AIDS see themselves. He also ties this to how the broader national sees homosexuality as "disease." He concludes by saying that gay studies is an important vehicle for gay people to assert their agency. The talk ends with a question and answer period.

Abstract: Recording of a panel presented at the Graduate Student Gay and Lesbian Academic Conference at University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee: "Mapping Difference." UW - Milwaukee professor of history Margo Anderson introduces panelists Brenda Riemer, Joseph Neisen, and John Howard. Brenda Riemer speaks first, discussing anti-Semitism and Jewish identity in gay and lesbian literature.

He also argues that homophobia is an imprecise word that is often misunderstood, preferring the term heterosexism as a term for oppression. John Howard speaks last, contrasting three incidents of university newspaper coverage of LGBT+ issues in the Deep South. The panel is followed by a question and answer period.

Frank Lloyd Wright's Monona Terrace Project and John Lampe: the Legal Scam of the HW Communication Center, 1991
Abstract: Two episodes one tape. Episode 1 is an episode in the Architectural Praxis series with the topic of the re-designed Monona Terrace project proposal. Architect Arlan Kay speaks on-site at the proposed Monona Terrace location. Kay describes the history of the site, from its geologic origins to human habitation by Native Americans and later by European settlers. He describes several proposed projects for the site that were never built from 1909 to 1990, including Frank Lloyd Wright's proposal in the mid-1930s, which was modified and scaled back into the current design for a convention center. The episode argues that the convention center would not benefit the people of Madison, but rather whichever private company owns the convention center. The episode then cuts to Olin Terrace, where Kay interviews city council member and Monona Terrace proponent Ricardo Gonzalez. Gonzalez argues that the Terrace would provide jobs, civic pride, and a beautiful landmark for the city, as well as economic development spurred by the conventions hosted at the center. Episode 2 also covers the Monona Terrace project, with engineer John Lampe looking at the details of the contract with Taliesin Architects, which Lampe argues is ripping off the city for $4 million. He shows that if the project is canceled Taliesin would still get 80% of their fee and no public bidding for construction is required, with Findorff Building almost certain to get the contract. After episode end is footage exploring the Civil Engineering Building at the University of Minnesota.

Real Eyes - Jay Hatheway 1) The Federalist Papers and the Concept of Commander in Chief 2) How the Pentagon Controls the Press 3) Nazis & Gays, 1991
Abstract: Three episodes on one tape. Episode one is a recording of Real Eyes with Jay Hatheway. Hatheway discusses the Federalist Papers as they relate to the role of the Commander in Chief and declaration of war, largely in response to George H. W. Bush's justification for use of force in the Persian Gulf. Hatheway argues that Bush's argument that he has the power to "use force" without a declaration of war by Congress is in contradiction with the original intent of the Constitution. Episode two is another recording of Real Eyes. Hatheway discusses military influence of the press in America and the escalation of the Gulf War into an invasion of Iraq. Hatheway covers the restrictions placed on members of the press covering the Gulf War, including requiring all interviews to be on the record, reports having to go in front of military censors, and stringent physical tests reporters are required to pass. Hatheway discusses how the military is trying to influence public opinion through these measures. He also discusses the expansion of the goals of United States intervention in the Persian Gulf, from defending Saudi Arabia to building democracy in Iraq. He argues that American goals are broad enough that intervention will take a long time and victory is illusive. Episode three is another episode of Real Eyes. Hatheway discusses Nazi attitudes toward homosexuality in the context of the SA and SS paramilitary organizations. Hatheway discusses the homosexuality of SA leader Ernst Rohm and argues that Hitler only turned against homosexuality later on as a way to consolidate his power and appeal to middle-class morality. Hatheway connects the prohibition of homosexuality by the Nazis as a way to appeal to middle class morality to the prohibition of homosexuality in the American military, which he argues was done for much the same reasons.

Alternative Candidates 1992: J. Quinn Brisben 2) Neighborhood Association Issues with Margie Colson Return to the Woods, 1991
Abstract: Two episodes. Episode 1 is a press conference by Socialist Party Presidential Candidate J. Quinn Brisben. Brisben argues that there is a consensus in America for several Socialist Party policies including socialized medicine, regulation and nationalization of banking, nuclear disarmament, anti-war sentiment, and pro-labor positions. Brisben also states his goal is to spread ideas and build infrastructure rather than purely win votes. He also distinguishes democratic socialism from Soviet communism.

The episode focuses on plans to demolish part of Turville Woods in Madison to build a swimming complex, filming on-site in Turville Woods. Gary Gates of the Turville Woods Coalition details the danger to kids from crossing John Nolen Drive to get to the complex among other issues. Gates argues that the city government has been secretive and unreceptive to community input, and argues that a referendum is necessary before major development takes place. Richard Freihoefer, a forest ecologist, covers the extent of the damage to the forest and accuses the mayor's office of slandering the Turville Woods Coalition by claiming a photo of the woods that will be destroyed was actually taken off-site. Margie Colson reads a letter of support for the coalition written by the Sherman Hills Neighborhood Association. She argues that park preservation is important, that money would be better spent on neighborhood playgrounds and pools, and urges the viewers to vote yes on an upcoming referendum. The episode ends with a series of text slides chastising the mayor for not listening to the public and advocating for greater political participation and decision-making power in Madison.

Next speaker is Ed Garvey, lawyer and political activist. Garvey talks about the importance of primary elections and extending campaign finance reform to them, as well as the importance of the issue for combatting corporate influence in government. The presentation is followed by a question-and-answer period.

Ethnic notions in history, 1992
Abstract: Recording of Ethnic Notions, a documentary that examines racist, anti-Black depictions of Black Americans in nineteenth and twentieth century American culture. Experts discuss the ways in which racist imagery in figurines, photos, and films translates to racism in public policies. The film explains how culture is created and re-recreated in a feedback loop, wherein a racist culture creates racist caricatures, which reinforce the racist culture. Racist caricatures explored include the sambo, mammy, and uncle. The documentary argues that these depictions fanned the flames of racism in a post-slavery, post-reconstructionist United States to increase and justify white violence against Black Americans.

Abstract: Recording of part one of an interview between David Runyon and Bill Runyon. Bill Runyon is a gay man living with AIDS who is in the hospital being treated for an infection. Bill discusses how he lost his job as a phlebotomist at a plasma center because of his condition and has been unable to get another job. He suspects that he might have gotten infected at work, but as a gay man has to deal with "AIDS hysteria." Bill explains his frustration with dealing with healthcare workers that know very little about AIDS, and are reluctant to be educated by a patient. He also discusses the depression and mental trauma of having AIDS, and how he tries to stay positive, preferring to describe himself as a person recovering from AIDS.
