"Together we are louder. Together we are heard"
"To put it briefly, I began experiencing inequalities and discrimination in my daily life. But discrimination was not the only problem. Self-stigmatization also aggravated the situation. For instance, when I was taking photos with my HIV-positive friends, I thought that we were supposed to hide our faces so that we could not be identified. Of course, it was impossible to say who has HIV when you looked at a photo. Yet this fear was making self-acceptance impossible."
