                  <text>VHS Activism is based on collections of VHS tapes linked to themes like AIDS and Activism. Over the course of her career, Prof. Alexandra Juhasz collected hundreds of VHS tapes by film artists out of the mainstream of cinema. In some cases, these films are not commercially available. This collection is designed to bring together the digitizations of the tapes themselves with student-driven annotations, as well as records and references in other media, such as reviews, websites, and study guides. This project is part of the OER Pilot Project at Brooklyn College.</text>

                <text>Gift from filmmaker. Carol was a friend and collaborator who I first met making AIDS activist video. She was also a subject of my documentary &lt;a href="http://alexandrajuhasz.com/films-videos/women-of-vision-18-histories-in-feminist-film-and-video/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;Women of Vision&lt;/a&gt;. Students love learning about her large oeuvre connecting sex work, feminism, AIDS and activism. Several projects in this archive have been made since, about and with Carol Leigh, including the group project &lt;a href="https://activismvhs.omeka.net/items/show/440"&gt;GROUP SEX&lt;/a&gt;, made in 2018, which includes an interview with Carol and documents of a group performance. She was also actively involved in the Day With(out) Art video program I co-edited with Hugh Ryan and Jean Carlomusto, &lt;a href="https://visualaids.org/projects/compulsive-practice"&gt;Compulsive Practice&lt;/a&gt;. She was one of 9 featured videomakers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please visit the Scarlot Harlot &lt;a href="https://carolleighmemorial.com/"&gt;memorial&lt;/a&gt;. Her loss is huge. You can see that she made sure to archive her own immense body of video works, and her friends and colleagues have continued this radical activist act of expression and memory.</text>
