...however, i'm interested in passing this information along to our audience..and because you know that our focus now is AIDS, specifically women of color and AIDS..this documentary/digital quilt became of interest. This is all the information if you're interested in attending a screening:
Sistahs Survive and Thrive is an online digital living AIDS quilt that features videos of women and girls who are infected and impacted by HIV/AIDS (have immediate family/friends/lovers who are HIV+). This will include women & girls of all ages, ethnicities, & sexual orientations and will be interactive so that females can upload videos of their personal narratives of living with/being impacted by HIV into this living HIV/AIDS quilt. This project is the brain child of filmmaker Hima B.
