Fire in the Blood

Zackie Achmat, Peter Mugyenyl

An intricate tale of "medicine, monopoly and malice", Fire in the Blood tells the story of how Western pharmaceutical companies and governments blocked access to low-cost AIDS drugs for the countries of the global south in the years after 1996 - causing ten million or more unnecessary deaths - and the improbable group of people who decided to fight back. Shot on four continents and including contributions from global figures such as Bill Clinton, Desmond Tutu and Joseph Stiglitz, Fire in the Blood is the never-before-told true story of the remarkable coalition which came together to stop 'the crime of the century' and save millions of lives in the process.

From Durban to Tomorrow

Dylan Mohan Gray

In the year 2000, mass protests led by people living with HIV in Durban, South Africa, radically transformed the global debate on human rights in health, giving rise to a series of major advances in public health for vulnerable and marginalized people the world over. Now, two decades later, many of these hard-won gains are in severe jeopardy, putting tens of millions of lives at risk. In FROM DURBAN TO TOMORROW, the stories of five courageous frontline advocates from different parts of the world lend powerful dimension to this rapidly worsening crisis and the impending battle for a meaningful, universal human right to health.
