About a year ago I either read an article or saw a documentary that featured a section on the history of direct action and it mentioned early ACT UP creative protest strategies, including a Holocaust float at...maybe it was at a Gay Pride parade at some point? It was either in NYC or SF. I took note of it at the time, but I can't find out anything I wrote down about it, and googling "ACT UP" and "holocaust float" doesn't turn anything up. Can anyone help me, do you know what I am talking about? I don't just mean the silence=death stickers, it was an actual float in a parade.

Thanks!

I'm continually amazed that this live journal genie thing works... but then I did rant for pages about "5 questions".
