SO HOLD UP A MIN. All of you who you love to screen films about HIV and AIDS crisis and disrespectfully create projects in the name of our kin/ martyrs who died fighting for our rights with their bodies CANT PUT A MASK POLICY IN???!!!You wanna talk about those who built our community by going around to each others houses and carrying each other to the bathroom to feeding them with their own hands! YOU think back then there weren't also people who just wanted to LIVE THEIR LIFE carry on with their arts projects and fly all up and down the world whilst their community died - the whole point of the activism was that the government weren't talking about it!!!!!. PUT SOME RESPECT ON OUR ANCESTORS NAMES. wake up . Fix up. You're being self centered, self serving and you CANNOT call yourself Q***R if you don't wanna be inconvenienced by a virus that is killing your vulnerable community members. Read a book. Watch them films you love to promote.
