We Are Having This Conversation Now: The Times of AIDS Cultural Production

"[Juhasz's and Kerr's] conversational model-by definition friendly, curious, and inviting, with an interest in accessibility and transparency-distinguishes [We Are Having This Conversation Now] from traditional academic writing and media criticism. Here, history-teaching and -learning is rooted in an oral history framework: that we learn what happened to communities from the people who constitute them."

Svetlana Kitto, Bomb

"We Are Having This Conversation Now carves a terrain of multimedia and citations. . . . [Juhasz and Kerr's] push to talk about AIDS across temporalities is an effort to drag conversations around AIDS and AIDS cultural production into a public present and keep them there."

Mackenzie Lukenbill, The Baffler

"We Are Having This Conversation Now is suffused with an awareness that the dominant narratives of AIDS in the United States have traditionally centered the lives of gay white men."

Alex Valenti, The Body
