We Are Having This Conversation Now offers a history, present, and
future of AIDS through thirteen short conversations between
Alexandra Juhasz and Theodore Kerr, scholars deeply embedded in HIV
responses. They establish multiple timelines of the epidemic,
offering six foundational periodizations of AIDS culture, tracing
how attention to the crisis has waxed and waned from the 1980s to
the present. They begin the book with a 1990 educational video
produced by a Black health collective, using it to consider
organizing intersectionally, theories of videotape, empowerment
movements, and memorialization. This video is one of many powerful
yet overlooked objects that the pair focus on through conversation
to understand HIV across time. Along the way, they share their own
artwork, activism, and stories of the epidemic. Their conversations
illuminate the vital role personal experience, community, cultural
production, and connection play in the creation of AIDS-related
knowledge, archives, and social change. Throughout, Juhasz and Kerr
invite readers to reflect and find ways to engage in their own
AIDS-related culture and conversation.
