In our 5th episode of Season 2, we're speaking with Ash Kotak, a gay man of Indian descent, who succesfully campaigned for the creation of a very first national Aids Memorial in London.
The Aids epidemic and how the world dealt with it or didn't deal with it, could learn us a lot in trying to understand how we should tackle this current global pandemic of Covid. And Ash points out so clearly how Aids, since it's emergence in the beginning of the 80's, has had his own global scale, of which many are far more unaware than we are with Covid.
It's proven to be an intense conversation, with Ash taking us on a journey through his own history and the different identities and trauma's he encountered. The meaning he has found on this path, touched and moved us and explains a lot of the commitment and energy Ash puts in this campaign.
