Title

"AIDS: A reality for everyone in today's society"

Subject

An overview of what was known at the time about AIDS, including drug therapy, social responsibility, and women and AIDS. Also includes safer sex guidelines and a list of common symptoms. It is noted that there was no research at the time on lesbians and AIDS. The author calls for compassion for people with AIDS and recommends seeking out the Newfoundland AIDS Association.

Waterlily was published quarterly from 1989-1991 by the Waterlily Collective, a division of East Coast Women and Words. The name Waterlily references a bulletin run by suffrage activists in Newfoundland in 1893. It was founded as a way to promote writing by women and submissions relevant to women's issues in Newfoundland and elsewhere. Their editorial policy stated they would not accept any material that was homophobic.
