"'I want a dyke for president,' artist Zoe Leonard writes in her 1992 poem. Inspired by the author Eileen Myles' run for president, and written at the height of the AIDS epidemic, the poem, 'I want a president,' has since been shown in museums, galleries, and outdoor installations around the world. More than a quarter-century after it was written, the poem made its way to Instagram - and became the center of a controversy over censorship on social media."
