从 Stonewall、地下剧场与艾滋病危机中的照护出发,理解 Agosto Machado 如何把朋友的遗物、讣告与照片保存成一座活的纪念室。


“an orphan with a sixth-grade education and a degree from the university of the streets.”“一个只有六年级教育、拿到‘街头大学’学位的孤儿。”
“I did twelve years of caregiving during the time of AIDS, and that was an awakening. The downtown community turned their backs on us – this is before ACT UP and so forth. I would visit sick people and do what I could or take them to doctors.”“在艾滋病流行期间,我做了十二年的照护工作,那是一种觉醒。市中心社群背弃了我们——那时 ACT UP 还没有出现。我会去探望病人,尽我所能帮助他们,或者带他们去看医生。”
“Well, it’s really ancestor worship, my gratitude for all these people who came through my life.”“这其实是对祖先的崇拜,是我对那些走进过我生命的人的感激。”
“I want to be remembered as I was. I’m going to join all our friends.”“我希望人们记住原本的我。我会去和所有朋友相聚。”
