A METHOD, AN IMPRINT, A LINK, AND A BREATH

HIV remains a life-altering disease despite the fact that antiretroviral medication can prevent death from AIDS. The stigma against people with HIV is still entirely real, and many HIV positive individuals live isolated lives while coping daily with chronic medical problems. That HIV cycles in and out of public awareness, and is currently a hushed topic in North America compounds these problems, as silence can make people forget who they are, what they love about themselves, and why they live. A Method, an Imprint, a Link, and a Breath is a collection of personal narratives, poetry, and transcriptions of spoken word by HIV positive individuals living in south central Pennsylvania. This book gathers the voices of people with HIV in effort to circulate their words through public venues and into personal conversations. The aim of this book is to become part of a larger movement to make public health about personal experience and the voices of communities facing the reality of a stigmatized disease.
