Show detail Hide detail

Interview with woman known under the pseudonym "Linda Booker". Callwood and "Linda" first negotiate her pseudonym. They discuss her upbringing, her burgeoning career and how she met Ssenyonga and a woman known under the pseudonym "Jennifer Anderson". "Booker" outlines her eventual, short-lived sexual relationship with Ssenyonga, her extreme reaction from exposure to the virus, an eventual pregnancy/miscarriage, and the demise of their partnership. She tells of when her friend "John Webster" told her about another woman Ssenyonga had been with who was hospitalized. Her wish for an AIDS test was ridiculed and denied by her doctor. She also speaks of her miscarriage, Ssenyonga's reaction, the dissolution of her relationship with her Polish beau and her faith as a Buddhist. "Booker" outlines her developing illness and speaks of "Jennifer Anderson" who called "Booker" to announce her HIV status, Ssenyonga's involvement with both women and her own positive results. "Booker" also discusses her views of how to deal with HIV symptoms through alternative medicine and holistic approaches to healing versus chemicals, such as AZT, that kill them. <95mn>
