Instituent R.C. 2903.11 [2018]

Instituent R.C. 2903.11 proposes a re-examination of power structures of institutions occupying the transgenerational struggle for health and social equity for people living with HIV/AIDS. This video employs archival footage from the first decade of the AIDS epidemic to explore contemporary intersections of policy, education, capital, and intimacy while juxtaposing this content with documented conversations with Chief Public Policy and Strategy Advisors of Equitas Health, Ohio’s largest HIV healthcare institution, and Equality Ohio.

Instituent R.C. 2903.11 preservers the documentation, demonstrations and direct actions of early AIDS activists and proposes new perspectives on HIV/AIDS service organizations and legislative institutions in the process to modernize and repeal HIV specific criminalization laws.
