For #GivingTuesday, The Montrose Center (MCC) and Legacy Community Health Services are screening How to Survive A Plague, a documentary which takes a look at the first two decades after HIV/AIDS first emerged, affecting gay and bisexual men in the United States.

Using some unconventional means, activists joined forces to demand that politics, public healthcare and the pharmaceutical industry pay attention.

Filmmaker David France uses archival footage from those first years in his 2012 documentary, back when we had to fight to be seen and recognized. It’s a story that winds through the era’s emotional turmoil.

Please join us for this free film screening on #GivingTuesday after the World AIDS Day Candlelight Observance down Westheimer.

The Montrose Management District
board workshop meeting scheduled for April 3
has been postponed indefinitely.
