This year’s program, “Meet Us Where We’re At,” will be hosted as a virtual screening and talkback. The filmmakers explore the experiences of drug users and harm reduction practices as they intersect with the ongoing HIV crisis. Harm reduction has long been central to the AIDS movement through practices like needle exchange and safe injection sites. This program brings the perspectives to the forefront, amplifying the voices of drug users as storytellers, cultural producers, and essential participants in the global response to HIV. Following the screening, a conversation with attendees will be moderated by Michelle Dezember, CAM Director of Learning and Engagement, and Crystal Ellis, owner of Crystallized Sexuality, LLC.
