When I found out, I had expected it.
29
00:02:32,387 --> 00:02:35,256
I had taken care of and buried
30
00:02:35,356 --> 00:02:38,493
most of my close friends by then.
31
00:02:39,227 --> 00:02:43,565
And there was nothing they were doing
that I was not doing
32
00:02:43,665 --> 00:02:46,835
back in the '70s, early '80s.
33
00:02:46,935 --> 00:02:49,404
So I had somewhat expected it.
34
00:02:49,504 --> 00:02:54,609
And when the counselor told me,
35
00:02:54,709 --> 00:02:59,013
I remember I just smiled
and I thought to myself,
36
00:02:59,113 --> 00:03:02,050
"Bitch, did you think you would escape?"
37
00:03:03,351 --> 00:03:06,454
I'm a recovering alcoholic.
I have to say that.
38
00:03:06,554 --> 00:03:11,025
I'm in a program of recovery
for the past ten years.
39
00:03:11,125 --> 00:03:16,030
And I had just came through the feelings
of low self-worth,
40
00:03:16,130 --> 00:03:19,000
no self-esteem, low self-esteem,
41
00:03:19,100 --> 00:03:22,837
and just started building myself back up
when I discovered I had the virus.
42
00:03:22,937 --> 00:03:26,608
After I discovered I had the virus,
all those feelings
43
00:03:26,708 --> 00:03:29,911
that I had worked my way through,
of coming through the Black community,
44
00:03:30,011 --> 00:03:32,747
living through the devastation
that I had lived through,
45
00:03:32,847 --> 00:03:36,851
that I felt that I'd lived through,
being Black and overcoming obstacles,
46
00:03:36,951 --> 00:03:39,454
it just hit me and knocked me
right back down again.
47
00:03:39,554 --> 00:03:43,024
I felt like life
wasn't worth living anymore.
48
00:03:45,026 --> 00:03:47,128
It's never been easy to talk about it.
49
00:03:47,228 --> 00:03:51,332
It continues to be a real, um, lesson
50
00:03:51,432 --> 00:03:52,934
in communicating with people
51
00:03:53,034 --> 00:03:55,303
because of, um,
52
00:03:55,403 --> 00:03:57,805
certainly, you know, the obvious things,
53
00:03:57,906 --> 00:04:00,275
stigma included,
54
00:04:00,375 --> 00:04:05,847
but also because of an unwillingness
55
00:04:05,947 --> 00:04:11,986
to... to give life to it as an experience.
56
00:04:12,086 --> 00:04:14,822
Denial is, I guess, what we call this.
57
00:04:14,923 --> 00:04:18,960
But, um, my, uh, reluctance
to talk about it
58
00:04:19,060 --> 00:04:23,765
had a lot to do
with not wanting to be perceived as sick,
59
00:04:23,865 --> 00:04:26,768
not wanting to be treated as "other."
60
00:04:27,268 --> 00:04:29,904
It was one of the most depressing things
61
00:04:30,004 --> 00:04:32,340
that I had ever heard in my life,
62
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,008
in my entire life.
63
00:04:34,108 --> 00:04:36,778
I was extremely depressed.
64
00:04:36,878 --> 00:04:39,180
And...
65
00:04:39,280 --> 00:04:42,183
...not really having any education
about it at the time,
66
00:04:43,351 --> 00:04:47,755
I really thought that I was going to die
very quickly or within the year.
67
00:04:48,823 --> 00:04:52,460
And all the stereotypes
of the disease came up to me.
68
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:56,331
And I had a real hard time dealing with it
at first. It was extremely difficult.
69
00:04:58,032 --> 00:05:01,035
I remember distinctly one day.
70
00:05:01,102 --> 00:05:02,337
I call this —
71
00:05:02,437 --> 00:05:06,140
Now, I call this "my AIDS panic day."
72
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:10,878
And I had gotten up in the morning
and I was dressing to go to work,
73
00:05:10,979 --> 00:05:14,282
getting ready to go to work,
and I was in the house by myself.
74
00:05:14,382 --> 00:05:18,019
I think my lover had left already.
75
00:05:18,119 --> 00:05:21,723
And I turned on the shower
in the bathroom,
76
00:05:21,823 --> 00:05:23,424
and stepped into the shower,
77
00:05:23,524 --> 00:05:26,427
and all of a sudden, I just panicked.
78
00:05:26,527 --> 00:05:29,797
And I started crying, you know,
79
00:05:29,897 --> 00:05:33,534
and screaming and hollering
by myself in the shower.
80
00:05:33,634 --> 00:05:34,836
And I just felt —
81
00:05:34,936 --> 00:05:38,673
I mean, I had this sense of fear and death
82
00:05:38,773 --> 00:05:41,376
and just overall panic.

On the day that I found out
I was HIV positive,
107
00:07:06,294 --> 00:07:10,298
I got a call from my mother
that afternoon...
108
00:07:11,833 --> 00:07:13,534
...stating that...
109
00:07:14,869 --> 00:07:16,671
my dog Mickey —
110
00:07:16,771 --> 00:07:19,740
although she had the dog herself,
111
00:07:19,841 --> 00:07:22,743
but that was a dog that I had
when I was growing up —
112
00:07:24,078 --> 00:07:26,514
had to be put to sleep,
113
00:07:26,614 --> 00:07:30,118
because he was in such pain
and he was an old dog.
114
00:07:30,218 --> 00:07:32,487
Could I come over?
115
00:07:32,587 --> 00:07:35,590
And we took the dog to the vet hospital.
116
00:07:36,324 --> 00:07:39,594
And I remember my mother
making a big scene
117
00:07:39,694 --> 00:07:42,029
as they were putting the dog to sleep.
118
00:07:43,397 --> 00:07:45,399
I didn't think that I could tell my mother
119
00:07:45,500 --> 00:07:48,436
because I didn't personally feel like
120
00:07:48,536 --> 00:07:51,706
I wanted to put another burden on her.
121
00:07:51,806 --> 00:07:54,008
She had nine children.
122
00:07:54,108 --> 00:07:58,513
My oldest brother had been murdered
a few years ago,
123
00:07:58,613 --> 00:08:02,183
and so she had to go through
that whole issue of his death
124
00:08:02,283 --> 00:08:04,585
and trying to accept that.
125
00:08:04,685 --> 00:08:07,054
And then I had a couple of other brothers
126
00:08:07,155 --> 00:08:10,725
who were going
through drug addiction problems and...
127
00:08:11,792 --> 00:08:17,131
So I felt like, you know, sharing
this knowledge, my knowledge, with her,
128
00:08:17,231 --> 00:08:20,535
at that point,
was going to be another burden.
129
00:08:21,936 --> 00:08:26,040
And here was my mother
going through a trauma at the vet
130
00:08:26,874 --> 00:08:30,211
on the day that I found out
I was HIV positive.
131
00:08:31,379 --> 00:08:33,948
I couldn't tell her,
I couldn't disclose to her...
132
00:08:34,949 --> 00:08:36,584
what I had just found out.
133
00:08:36,684 --> 00:08:39,420
And I kept extremely cool,
134
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:43,891
almost disassociating myself
of what was happening.
135
00:08:44,859 --> 00:08:46,761
Trying to be objective.
136
00:08:47,461 --> 00:08:49,864
Trying to be a support for my mother.
137
00:08:50,998 --> 00:08:53,868
And I remember when we...
138
00:08:55,236 --> 00:09:01,542
held the dog on the stretcher and...
139
00:09:03,311 --> 00:09:04,845
bid him goodbye.
140
00:09:05,746 --> 00:09:07,915
And my mother was just in tears.
141
00:09:08,983 --> 00:09:14,188
And somehow, in my mind,
I kept imagining what it would be like...
142
00:09:16,457 --> 00:09:17,992
for my mother...
143
00:09:20,861 --> 00:09:22,496
the day I die.
144
00:09:25,166 --> 00:09:27,134
I was 30 years old
145
00:09:28,603 --> 00:09:30,771
and my mother's only child.
146
00:09:34,709 --> 00:09:36,043
That hurt.
147
00:09:37,678 --> 00:09:41,282
I finally have told my mother.
148
00:09:41,382 --> 00:09:44,085
I told her, actually, last week
149
00:09:44,151 --> 00:09:46,120
in a letter,
150
00:09:46,220 --> 00:09:50,791
which, to me, I really had to think about
how I was going to tell her.
151
00:09:52,293 --> 00:09:55,763
So, I really didn't want to bring up
152
00:09:56,864 --> 00:09:59,333
a feeling of obligation,
153
00:09:59,433 --> 00:10:03,337
in that, I didn't want to be
treated like a patient
154
00:10:03,437 --> 00:10:06,040
or treated in some way.
155
00:10:06,140 --> 00:10:09,277
Um, I just wanted it to be heard,
what I was going to say,
156
00:10:09,377 --> 00:10:10,745
so I decided to send her a letter,
157
00:10:10,845 --> 00:10:12,980
and I felt that that
was the best way to tell her.
158
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:18,119
My mother ultimately found out
from one of my aunts, her sister.
159
00:10:18,219 --> 00:10:22,556
My mother passed away
two years ago of cancer.
160
00:10:22,657 --> 00:10:26,560
And when she was going through
161
00:10:26,661 --> 00:10:31,832
some of the early stages of that,
actually when she was going through
162
00:10:31,932 --> 00:10:34,802
chemotherapy and radiation
and stuff like that,
163
00:10:34,902 --> 00:10:38,306
we would talk almost daily
164
00:10:38,406 --> 00:10:39,907
and she would always say to me,
165
00:10:40,007 --> 00:10:42,910
"You know, baby, they're doing
some wonderful things with AIDS,
166
00:10:43,010 --> 00:10:45,112
and they're doing
some wonderful things with cancer.
167
00:10:45,212 --> 00:10:46,480
And we can beat this.
168
00:10:46,580 --> 00:10:49,984
We just have to be strong
and we have to hang on."
169
00:10:51,018 --> 00:10:54,422
I'll never forget her
for saying those kinds of things to me.
170
00:10:56,991 --> 00:10:59,226
I was really face-to-face with my mother
171
00:10:59,327 --> 00:11:03,130
and saying, "This is really me.
This is what I'm about."
172
00:11:03,197 --> 00:11:04,365
Um...
173
00:11:05,232 --> 00:11:06,734
Excuse me. "I'm...
174
00:11:07,535 --> 00:11:10,538
I'm not going to hide about this,
175
00:11:10,638 --> 00:11:12,973
and that I don't want to be treated
like an invalid,
176
00:11:13,074 --> 00:11:15,376
and I don't want your responses to be
177
00:11:15,476 --> 00:11:18,746
because you feel you have to be my mother.
178
00:11:18,846 --> 00:11:23,417
It's that I really am asking
for a person-to-person response."
179
00:11:23,517 --> 00:11:24,885
And it was really pretty honest,
180
00:11:24,985 --> 00:11:27,388
and it was the first time
I'd really leveled honestly with her
181
00:11:27,488 --> 00:11:30,925
and said that this is really what my life
is about, without any kind of apologies.
182
00:11:33,794 --> 00:11:36,897
My mother has had a rough time.
183
00:11:37,598 --> 00:11:40,434
Because there is an element of shame.
184
00:11:40,534 --> 00:11:41,936
I'm from Haiti.
185
00:11:45,239 --> 00:11:51,312
And although AIDS is epidemic in Haiti...
186
00:11:53,547 --> 00:11:55,583
But we're not supposed to talk about it
187
00:11:56,417 --> 00:11:58,853
in the kind of social class
188
00:12:00,187 --> 00:12:02,056
that we come from in Haiti.
189
00:12:03,858 --> 00:12:06,494
But I'm, like I said, open.
190
00:12:06,594 --> 00:12:10,131
It's not something that I'm going
to be made to feel ashamed of.
191
00:12:10,231 --> 00:12:12,533
It is a virus. It is a medical problem.
192
00:12:12,633 --> 00:12:16,137
People are not made to feel ashamed
when they have cancer,
193
00:12:16,237 --> 00:12:19,240
when they have a heart attack,
et cetera, et cetera.
194
00:12:19,340 --> 00:12:21,308
No! I'm not going to be ashamed.
195
00:12:21,409 --> 00:12:25,079
This is a virus.

a young man come to church
and sit in the front row.
223
00:13:51,465 --> 00:13:54,635
And I had seen him begin to dwindle away.
He became emaciated.
224
00:13:54,735 --> 00:13:57,204
And then he wouldn't even go up
to take communion.
225
00:13:57,304 --> 00:13:58,772
The priest would have to go to him.
226
00:13:58,873 --> 00:14:00,941
And I had seen the people shun him.
227
00:14:01,041 --> 00:14:03,344
And I knew that this could happen to me.
228
00:14:05,412 --> 00:14:11,852
The fact is that we Black gay men
live in the world as well,
229
00:14:11,952 --> 00:14:15,823
um, in the same world that, you know...
230
00:14:16,857 --> 00:14:20,461
writes off people with HIV,
231
00:14:20,561 --> 00:14:22,796
writes off people with AIDS.
232
00:14:22,897 --> 00:14:26,267
It's not just people that are, um, dying.
233
00:14:26,367 --> 00:14:28,235
And that's certainly the equation —
234
00:14:28,335 --> 00:14:32,339
well, AIDS and death mean the same thing.
235
00:14:32,439 --> 00:14:38,646
But also writes off people
to the extent that there is...
236
00:14:40,314 --> 00:14:43,851
little they can do for you,
little they can offer you.
237
00:14:43,951 --> 00:14:47,121
And, um, quite simply put,
238
00:14:47,221 --> 00:14:52,092
it's, you know, a comfort zone,
so to speak,
239
00:14:52,192 --> 00:14:55,229
wherein not sharing that information
240
00:14:55,329 --> 00:15:01,101
means that you're not
among those people that are dismissed.
241
00:15:01,201 --> 00:15:04,138
There are so many things that
the Black community has not acknowledged,
242
00:15:04,238 --> 00:15:06,173
especially the church community.
243
00:15:06,273 --> 00:15:08,576
They're saying,
"These things don't happen."
244
00:15:08,676 --> 00:15:14,915
They're saying, "Our men don't participate
in homosexual episodes."
245
00:15:15,015 --> 00:15:19,253
Which is not true. I am living proof.
246
00:15:19,353 --> 00:15:20,788
I was — I was —
247
00:15:20,888 --> 00:15:22,222
Now I can say this.
248
00:15:22,323 --> 00:15:25,025
This is something that
the epidemic has done for me.
249
00:15:25,125 --> 00:15:27,494
I was in the closet for...
250
00:15:28,996 --> 00:15:31,899
It's 40 years
before I came out of the closet,
251
00:15:31,999 --> 00:15:35,436
before I could go amongst my own peers
and feel like I was somebody.
252
00:15:36,203 --> 00:15:40,708
Coming out around sexuality was, um...
253
00:15:42,176 --> 00:15:45,546
a real challenge, I mean,
as it is for everyone, I think,
254
00:15:45,646 --> 00:15:50,351
in a culture that is so down on,
so hard on people
255
00:15:50,451 --> 00:15:53,320
who speak about sexuality at all.
256
00:15:53,387 --> 00:15:55,089
Um...
257
00:15:55,189 --> 00:16:00,427
but coming out about HIV, um...
258
00:16:02,429 --> 00:16:05,633
is very different
because of what this culture is doing —
259
00:16:05,733 --> 00:16:08,002
continues to do, to my surprise.
260
00:16:08,102 --> 00:16:14,642
I think sometimes that we are past
certain milestones in understanding,
261
00:16:14,708 --> 00:16:16,243
um, uh...
262
00:16:17,478 --> 00:16:19,279
you know, as a culture.
263
00:16:19,380 --> 00:16:22,583
But the culture continues
264
00:16:22,683 --> 00:16:27,388
to equate this disease,
this state of health,
265
00:16:27,488 --> 00:16:30,991
with these grand moral issues,
266
00:16:31,091 --> 00:16:35,929
and, um, that people are,
267
00:16:36,030 --> 00:16:40,501
uh, made to apologize for their health.
268
00:16:42,903 --> 00:16:44,905
It's something that society...
269
00:16:47,107 --> 00:16:48,609
wants you to think is dirty.
270
00:16:48,709 --> 00:16:50,678
It's something that you
ought to be ashamed of.
271
00:16:50,778 --> 00:16:54,014
It's something that you got through sex.
272
00:16:54,114 --> 00:16:57,918
And "sex" is a dirty word
273
00:16:58,018 --> 00:17:00,454
in our so-called Puritanical society.
274
00:17:01,188 --> 00:17:04,625
What coming out about HIV has meant, then,
275
00:17:04,725 --> 00:17:11,398
is to come out on one side
of these sort of —
276
00:17:11,498 --> 00:17:15,669
all of this moralizing that's going on.
277
00:17:15,769 --> 00:17:20,474
We now have celebrities apologizing,
so to speak,
278
00:17:20,574 --> 00:17:24,044
for being infected with a disease.
279
00:17:24,144 --> 00:17:28,382
And there's some real problem
with that for me
280
00:17:28,482 --> 00:17:33,854
because no one's choosing
to live with this disease.
281
00:17:33,954 --> 00:17:35,823
But it's circumstance.
282
00:17:35,923 --> 00:17:38,025
Um, and, um —
283
00:17:38,125 --> 00:17:42,162
So, again, coming out around it
and talking to people about it
284
00:17:42,262 --> 00:17:48,035
means to come to terms with
everyone's individual responses
285
00:17:48,135 --> 00:17:51,205
and moralizing and judgments
286
00:17:51,305 --> 00:17:53,974
around what it means.
287
00:17:54,074 --> 00:17:57,177
And that is probably
288
00:17:57,277 --> 00:18:01,582
the, you know, hardest part of it to me.
289
00:18:08,555 --> 00:18:10,190
For me, a lot of people know —
290
00:18:10,290 --> 00:18:14,495
Because I have this public persona
about my HIV disease,
291
00:18:14,595 --> 00:18:18,465
there are a lot of people, publicly,
who know that I have it.
292
00:18:18,565 --> 00:18:22,002
I never hesitate to put that forward
293
00:18:22,069 --> 00:18:25,072
as who I am.
294
00:18:25,172 --> 00:18:29,943
You know, that's a part of
"the Reggie Williams," the public person.
295
00:18:30,043 --> 00:18:36,383
And so, I know that
there's a large array of people out there
296
00:18:36,483 --> 00:18:39,086
who know about my HIV status,
297
00:18:39,186 --> 00:18:41,155
not necessarily because I told them,
298
00:18:41,255 --> 00:18:43,290
but it is sort of public knowledge.
299
00:18:43,390 --> 00:18:47,594
But there's a fear that I have of,
you know,
300
00:18:47,694 --> 00:18:51,131
since all of these people publicly know
301
00:18:51,231 --> 00:18:54,468
that I'm HIV-infected, you know,
302
00:18:55,602 --> 00:19:00,874
do they still see me
as a desirable person,
303
00:19:00,974 --> 00:19:03,944
someone that they might
want to be intimate with?
304
00:19:06,713 --> 00:19:09,149
Somehow, the HIV had also affected,
305
00:19:09,249 --> 00:19:13,754
like, old religiosity that I had about sex
and the taboos about sex,
306
00:19:13,854 --> 00:19:17,090
and it kind of, like, stirred up so much
307
00:19:17,191 --> 00:19:23,397
that I had to kind of reanalyze
my perceptions about what sex really is
308
00:19:23,497 --> 00:19:28,535
and about relationships
between honest human beings,
309
00:19:28,635 --> 00:19:32,472
um, as opposed to
how a relationship looked
310
00:19:32,573 --> 00:19:34,875
or how a relationship is supposed to be.
311
00:19:34,975 --> 00:19:40,747
So, I really, honestly,
isolated for quite a period of time.
312
00:19:44,818 --> 00:19:46,553
My, um...
313
00:19:47,988 --> 00:19:54,094
sexual self is enormously diminished
by the experience of HIV.
314
00:19:54,194 --> 00:19:59,299
My right to sex and sexuality feels,
315
00:19:59,399 --> 00:20:02,402
you know, something I have to battle for.
316
00:20:02,502 --> 00:20:06,306
Um, I feel that my, um...
317
00:20:07,474 --> 00:20:10,911
And then the physical experience,
318
00:20:11,011 --> 00:20:15,983
actually, of the disease,
319
00:20:16,083 --> 00:20:20,354
um, creates a sort of anger almost
320
00:20:20,454 --> 00:20:22,522
around my body not being —
321
00:20:22,623 --> 00:20:26,093
not responding,
not being what it once was.
322
00:20:26,193 --> 00:20:28,562
I gave up sex in 1983
323
00:20:28,662 --> 00:20:31,665
because I knew that AIDS
was a sexual disease.
324
00:20:31,765 --> 00:20:35,669
I knew that you could catch it
by having sex.
325
00:20:35,769 --> 00:20:41,675
And I didn't — I wasn't diagnosed,
but I didn't want to kill anybody.
326
00:20:41,775 --> 00:20:46,613
I knew that there was a possibility
that I would give it to someone else.
327
00:20:46,713 --> 00:20:48,482
Then I also knew one other thing.
328
00:20:48,582 --> 00:20:50,984
I knew that — I knew what I had,
329
00:20:51,084 --> 00:20:53,921
and in the back of my mind,
if I might have something.
330
00:20:54,021 --> 00:20:56,623
But I didn't want to catch anything else.
331
00:20:56,723 --> 00:21:00,294
I didn't want to catch
the related diseases that went with it.
332
00:21:00,394 --> 00:21:03,163
I didn't want to catch herpes.
I didn't want to catch meningitis.
333
00:21:03,263 --> 00:21:08,869
I didn't want to catch another infection,
another cold from someone else.
334
00:21:08,969 --> 00:21:14,241
So I just decided, well, sex was not
the most important thing at that time.
335
00:21:14,341 --> 00:21:17,377
Sex, I felt that I could do without.
336
00:21:19,613 --> 00:21:23,183
I was into the telephone,
337
00:21:23,283 --> 00:21:27,688
a lot of things, a lot of phone sex,
338
00:21:27,788 --> 00:21:30,090
things like that to really avoid intimacy.
339
00:21:30,891 --> 00:21:33,760
And now I find that...
340
00:21:34,995 --> 00:21:36,897
It's like I feel like I'm waking up again.
341
00:21:36,997 --> 00:21:40,767
And I guess that's sort of the reward
of really being honest with myself
342
00:21:40,867 --> 00:21:43,403
and saying that
there's no reason for the shame.
343
00:21:43,503 --> 00:21:45,706
And I'm real tired of that kind of shame.
344
00:21:45,806 --> 00:21:49,376
What caused the transformation, uh...
345
00:21:50,744 --> 00:21:55,315
It's just being out and being exposed
to guys who did have the virus,
346
00:21:55,415 --> 00:21:58,618
and knowing more about the virus
347
00:21:58,719 --> 00:22:02,456
and knowing that, uh, I could —
348
00:22:02,556 --> 00:22:06,893
that I could practice safe sex
and not hurt anybody,
349
00:22:06,994 --> 00:22:09,363
and not hurt myself also.
350
00:22:09,463 --> 00:22:11,698
And learning more,
351
00:22:11,798 --> 00:22:15,869
going to seminars
and studying human sexuality, which —
352
00:22:15,969 --> 00:22:17,804
I am a sexual person.
353
00:22:17,904 --> 00:22:22,042
Just because I have a virus
does not mean that I can't participate.
354
00:22:22,142 --> 00:22:25,112
I believe in safe sex
and I believe in condoms.
355
00:22:25,212 --> 00:22:30,050
And, uh, just getting used to
having the disease
356
00:22:30,150 --> 00:22:31,852
and living with it a day at a time.
357
00:22:32,486 --> 00:22:36,356
It's a virus and we have
to constantly remind ourselves...
358
00:22:39,192 --> 00:22:41,695
it is not sexuality that is the problem.
359
00:22:41,795 --> 00:22:45,499
Go and have as much sex as possible.
360
00:22:45,599 --> 00:22:47,034
Go and have...
361
00:22:48,268 --> 00:22:49,703
relationships.
362
00:22:49,803 --> 00:22:51,471
I do believe in one-night stands.
363
00:22:51,571 --> 00:22:55,842
I do believe in...
extended one-night stands.
364
00:22:55,942 --> 00:22:59,346
My lover and I always had
an open relationship.
365
00:22:59,413 --> 00:23:01,314
But be safe.
366
00:23:01,415 --> 00:23:02,883
Use a condom.
367
00:23:04,384 --> 00:23:08,555
And there are so many facets
to sex, to sexuality.
368
00:23:08,655 --> 00:23:10,090
It is not just...
369
00:23:11,324 --> 00:23:13,693
fucking, fucking and sucking.
370
00:23:13,794 --> 00:23:16,563
There's the whole element of jerking off,
371
00:23:18,398 --> 00:23:20,434
of talking dirty...
372
00:23:21,568 --> 00:23:23,303
of listening.
373
00:23:25,072 --> 00:23:29,810
Discover new facets, explore,
374
00:23:29,910 --> 00:23:32,279
and you'll be surprised at what you find.
375
00:23:32,913 --> 00:23:37,217
So I say, go ahead,
worship each other's bodies.
376
00:23:38,418 --> 00:23:39,920
Love them.

386
00:24:26,500 --> 00:24:29,703
I told my pastor immediately after
I became positive,
387
00:24:29,803 --> 00:24:32,038
because I knew I would need
a support system.
388
00:24:32,139 --> 00:24:35,642
I had supported
quite a few other guys before this,
389
00:24:35,742 --> 00:24:39,679
and I knew that they had died
quietly in the closet and very angry.
390
00:24:39,779 --> 00:24:43,283
And I didn't want to die like that,
and I didn't want to live like that.
391
00:24:44,217 --> 00:24:49,289
We have the example of many leaders
392
00:24:49,389 --> 00:24:51,658
in our gay and lesbian community...
393
00:24:54,895 --> 00:24:58,298
dying of HIV illness...
394
00:25:00,100 --> 00:25:03,570
without the community ever knowing...
395
00:25:04,905 --> 00:25:06,540
that they were ill.
396
00:25:10,877 --> 00:25:12,345
They deny...
397
00:25:13,980 --> 00:25:17,083
by keeping silent about their illness,
398
00:25:17,184 --> 00:25:20,687
the community a chance
to reach out to them.
399
00:25:22,155 --> 00:25:24,991
But the strange phenomenon is that...
400
00:25:27,394 --> 00:25:30,897
they are usually outed in their obituaries
401
00:25:30,997 --> 00:25:34,234
as if they died gloriously
of this disease.
402
00:25:34,334 --> 00:25:37,504
Nobody dies gloriously of this disease,
but you know what I mean.
403
00:25:37,604 --> 00:25:40,774
When you pick up an obituary
and you see such-and-such writer,
404
00:25:40,874 --> 00:25:45,845
such-and-such designer died of AIDS,
405
00:25:45,946 --> 00:25:49,382
then you say, "But wait a minute.
This person never came out.
406
00:25:49,482 --> 00:25:52,285
This person never disclosed
his positivity.
407
00:25:52,385 --> 00:25:55,288
This person could have done lots of good."
408
00:25:55,388 --> 00:25:58,458
And we have the examples
of the famous choreographer,
409
00:25:58,558 --> 00:26:02,195
the famous designer, the famous writers,
410
00:26:02,295 --> 00:26:05,332
and so on and so on, the famous singer...
411
00:26:06,866 --> 00:26:10,270
sometimes coming out on their deathbeds.
412
00:26:12,973 --> 00:26:14,274
Shame.
413
00:26:16,876 --> 00:26:18,578
I say, "Shame."
414
00:26:20,213 --> 00:26:23,149
AIDS and HIV have, um...
415
00:26:25,885 --> 00:26:28,755
brought up in this culture so many issues
416
00:26:28,855 --> 00:26:32,959
that, you know, cross a lot of boundaries
417
00:26:33,059 --> 00:26:37,897
around class and gender
418
00:26:37,998 --> 00:26:41,835
and, um, certainly homophobia.
419
00:26:41,935 --> 00:26:46,573
And what we do in response,
420
00:26:46,673 --> 00:26:49,776
as people living with the infection,
421
00:26:49,876 --> 00:26:54,281
as well as the rest of the community,
422
00:26:54,381 --> 00:26:57,817
is, um, critical.
423
00:26:57,917 --> 00:27:02,022
Well, I feel it's so important
that people know
424
00:27:02,122 --> 00:27:05,992
that it is all kinds of people
with the virus,
425
00:27:06,092 --> 00:27:09,296
that it is not just one basic stereotype.
426
00:27:09,396 --> 00:27:12,165
It's not only Magic who has the virus.
427
00:27:12,265 --> 00:27:14,868
It's not only, uh, uh...
428
00:27:15,535 --> 00:27:20,940
young people, old people,
homosexuals who have the virus.
429
00:27:21,041 --> 00:27:23,343
It's all kinds of people
who have the virus.
430
00:27:26,346 --> 00:27:29,582
One of the major crossroads for me was,
431
00:27:29,683 --> 00:27:34,254
um, telling people about it
and having them respond.
432
00:27:34,354 --> 00:27:38,725
And now that I've started
to do that a lot more,
433
00:27:38,825 --> 00:27:43,763
I'm finding it a lot simpler
than I thought
434
00:27:43,863 --> 00:27:48,168
and finding the response,
even in the community, to be...
435
00:27:50,737 --> 00:27:53,573
less, uh, distant.
436
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:55,342
I find that...
437
00:27:57,377 --> 00:28:01,481
in a funny way, the less I hide,
438
00:28:01,581 --> 00:28:03,950
the more I find out
the other side of the story
439
00:28:04,050 --> 00:28:06,319
and I find out that other people are HIV,
440
00:28:06,419 --> 00:28:09,255
that there are a lot of HIV people
in the world.
441
00:28:09,356 --> 00:28:11,257
There are a lot of people who have AIDS.
442
00:28:11,358 --> 00:28:16,396
It's much larger
than America likes to fantasize.
443
00:28:16,496 --> 00:28:17,997
It's a much bigger issue.
444
00:28:18,098 --> 00:28:22,435
It's affecting a lot of people's lives
much more than they really know, that, um...
445
00:28:22,535 --> 00:28:24,337
♪ No more weeping ♪
446
00:28:24,437 --> 00:28:27,006
In one way, I want to end that myth.
447
00:28:27,941 --> 00:28:33,480
♪ No more weeping ♪
448
00:28:34,714 --> 00:28:38,051

456
00:29:20,994 --> 00:29:23,696
Sometimes I think
457
00:29:23,797 --> 00:29:26,032
that it would be nice to stop
458
00:29:26,132 --> 00:29:30,670
and to just take time to deal with me.
459
00:29:31,438 --> 00:29:34,974
Uh, but then I — This epidemic is —
460
00:29:36,142 --> 00:29:37,277
is, uh —
461
00:29:38,411 --> 00:29:41,514
It continues to ravage
our community so badly
462
00:29:41,614 --> 00:29:45,351
that I feel that if I stop
and take time to deal with me,
463
00:29:45,452 --> 00:29:48,588
then it's going to catch up with us
and consume us all.
464
00:29:48,688 --> 00:29:54,294
And so, it's like that constant need
to — to — to keep going.
465
00:29:55,094 --> 00:29:58,731
I've become more involved in the work of...
466
00:30:00,133 --> 00:30:02,735
AIDS education, personally.
467
00:30:02,836 --> 00:30:09,042
You know, the learning experience
of being submerged or emerged in...
468
00:30:11,010 --> 00:30:16,282
in the field, so to speak,
has taught me an enormous amount.
469
00:30:16,382 --> 00:30:21,054
And my silence in that work
470
00:30:21,154 --> 00:30:26,392
didn't seem really sensible to me
after a point.
471
00:30:26,493 --> 00:30:29,562
Um, but likewise,
472
00:30:30,830 --> 00:30:34,167
that, um, you know, the challenge —
473
00:30:34,267 --> 00:30:36,936
the challenges to my health, also,
474
00:30:37,036 --> 00:30:41,975
um, made me, you know,
have to deal with the reality of it.
475
00:30:42,075 --> 00:30:45,278
And talking about it was inevitable
476
00:30:45,378 --> 00:30:49,249
as I started to do battle
with different symptoms and the like,
477
00:30:49,349 --> 00:30:53,887
and having people to support me
478
00:30:53,987 --> 00:30:57,023
and understand what that experience
was all about.
479
00:30:57,123 --> 00:31:01,127
So, it required me, also,
to talk about it more.
480
00:31:02,061 --> 00:31:06,833
I started meetings for HIV people
there at the church.
481
00:31:06,933 --> 00:31:11,704
And so, knowing that people had
some knowledge of what was happening,
482
00:31:11,804 --> 00:31:15,208
that, when it came to me,
they would accept it like they did.
483
00:31:15,308 --> 00:31:19,145
No one even questions me now.
No one has ever even approached me on it.
484
00:31:19,245 --> 00:31:23,483
Not many people — a few people at
the church who I sit down and talk with.
485
00:31:23,583 --> 00:31:25,084
But other than that, they haven't.
486
00:31:25,184 --> 00:31:27,587
We even did the Quilt project
there recently.
487
00:31:27,687 --> 00:31:29,622
I brought the Quilt project there.
488
00:31:29,722 --> 00:31:32,025
And we did the Harlem Week of Prayer.
489
00:31:32,125 --> 00:31:35,595
And, uh, we participated, helping out,
490
00:31:35,695 --> 00:31:38,631
and we brought people
from other churches into the church,
491
00:31:38,731 --> 00:31:40,733
and we got the clergy involved.
492
00:31:40,833 --> 00:31:45,305
And this is how I figured I could broaden
their awareness of what was happening.
493
00:31:46,673 --> 00:31:49,475
Now, in my life,
it's really about trying to be honest,
494
00:31:49,576 --> 00:31:52,579
in that, it's really honest for myself.
495
00:31:52,679 --> 00:31:55,848
It's not about disclosure
as much as for myself, really.
496
00:31:55,949 --> 00:31:59,152
In one way, it's really about trying to...
497
00:32:01,454 --> 00:32:04,324
...really have relationships in my life
that are valuable and honest.
498
00:32:04,424 --> 00:32:07,961
What I do see all the time
499
00:32:08,061 --> 00:32:12,899
is that people are impacted, um,
500
00:32:12,999 --> 00:32:16,135
mostly and most deeply by...
501
00:32:17,870 --> 00:32:19,272
the personal,
502
00:32:19,372 --> 00:32:24,344
that there's enormous power
in — in talking about,
503
00:32:24,444 --> 00:32:27,013
um... you know,
504
00:32:27,113 --> 00:32:29,449
talking about I, me,
505
00:32:29,549 --> 00:32:32,051
and people find places to connect to it.
506
00:32:32,151 --> 00:32:36,456
You know, my hope is that by doing this,
507
00:32:36,556 --> 00:32:39,926
by talking about what's happening with me,
508
00:32:40,026 --> 00:32:42,762
that somebody else is able to say,
509
00:32:42,862 --> 00:32:46,366
"Okay, well, that means something to me.
510
00:32:46,466 --> 00:32:50,303
That helps me in some way
to function with HIV
511
00:32:50,403 --> 00:32:53,640
or to care for someone who has AIDS,
512
00:32:53,740 --> 00:32:59,646
or to, you know,
take to the streets as an activist."
513
00:32:59,746 --> 00:33:02,081
I mean, whatever it is.
514
00:33:02,181 --> 00:33:06,919
And I don't share it thinking that it will
necessarily do all of those things,
515
00:33:07,020 --> 00:33:13,092
but, um, with the hope that it means
something to someone else.
