Dr. Gao Yaojie is a remarkable physician who exposed the devastating HIV/AIDS crisis caused by blood plasma trading in 1990s Henan Province, China. Named "Time's Asian Hero" and widely recognized as China's first civilian AIDS prevention advocate, Dr. Gao was forced to leave her homeland in 2009 to pursue independent research, eventually finding refuge in the United States.
Author and journalist Lin Shiyu, who cared for Dr. Gao during her final years in America, will share intimate insights from her extensive interviews and biographical works. Lin's book "The Oral History of Gao Yaojie" was named one of the "Top 10 Books of the Year" by Yazhou Zhoukan. Through Lin's compassionate lens, we'll explore how an ordinary woman's extraordinary dedication to public health made her one of China's most important humanitarian figures.
Following Dr. Gao's passing in New York on December 10, 2023, at age 95, we invite you to join us for this special memorial event. Lin Shiyu will honor Dr. Gao's legacy through a talk titled "May All Others Be Healthy, Though I Remain in Hardship: Remembering Dr. Gao Yaojie One Year Later."
The talk will be followed by a Screening of "Farewell" (4:30 - 6:00 pm), a documentary about Dr. Gao by acclaimed Chinese filmmaker Wang Libo, whose works have received multiple international film festival awards.
The talk will be in Chinese, and the film screening in Chinese and English subtitles.
