Short videos 放映

 

From histories of harm reduction and prison activism to the long-term effects of HIV medication, ENDURING CARE centers stories of collective care, mutual aid, and solidarity while pointing to the negligence of governments and non-profits. The program’s title suggests a dual meaning, honoring the perseverance and commitment of care workers yet also addressing the potential for harm from medications and healthcare providers. ENDURING CARE disrupts the assumption that an epidemic can be solved with pharmaceuticals alone, recasting community work as a lasting form of medicine.

 

從減害計畫、監獄運動的歷史到HIV藥物的長期影響,「持續關照」聚焦集體照護、互相扶持、社會團結的故事,同時指出政府和非營利組織的疏失。本節目名稱有雙重意涵,向堅持不懈的照護者致敬,同時也提醒大眾不當用藥及照護可能造成危害,導致關照必須持續。「持續關照」試圖消除藥物即能終結疫情的假設,強調社區工作才是長效良藥。
