AIDS AT 40 — VOICES OF THE EPIDEMIC

HEAR ME: VOICES OF THE EPIDEMIC—an original, sound-based installation in recognition of World AIDS Day—and the online conversation series A Time To Listen mark the forty years since the United States Centers for Disease Control’s first reports about the emergence of the disease.

The installation and conversation series bring together the voices of Vito Russo, Iris de la Cruz, Kia LaBeija, Constantine Jones, David Wojnarowicz, Michael Callen, Larry Kramer, and many more.
