Windy City Queercast

Host: Amy Matheny with Mitchell Fain

Amy and Mitchell discuss World AIDS Day. Mitchell shares his coming out at the height of the AIDS epidemic and his reaction to the lack of responsiveness from President Reagan. They discuss the importance of getting tested, people they’ve lost, the AIDS quilt, PREP, the statistics of people who don’t even know they have HIV/AIDS and so much more. It’s a big and powerful show.
