Event Details

OTHER NO MORE is a docudrama written/directed by Kyoung H. Park, based on real-life interviews with queer elders in our community who spearheaded the LGBQTIAGNCTS+ grassroots campaign of the same name.

“Other No More” lobbied for the US Surgeon General to remove Asian-Americans and Indigenous Peoples from the “Other” box, so that federal funds could be directed to meet the needs of Asian-Americans and Native Americans suffering from HIV/AIDS.

Interviewees for OTHER NO MORE includie Collette Carter, John Chin, Verónica Flores, Gil Gerald, Curtis Harris-Davia, Kris Hayashi, Joo-Hyun Kang, Don Kao, Paul Kawata, Johnny Monzon-Santos, Cara Page and Suki Terada Ports.

OTHER NO MORE will look at the history of how this multiracial movement established social infrastructures needed to address a global epidemic and question how our queer, BIPOC communities can use this campaign’s response to a public health crisis as a model to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic today.
