Video Interview: The Recruiters with Tom Duane — Episode 3
In Episode 3 of The Recruiters, Robert Suttle appears in a recorded conversation with Tom Duane examining HIV criminalization, stigma, and the pursuit of justice through advocacy and public accountability.
The episode pairs Robert’s lived experience with Duane’s political perspective, situating personal testimony within broader discussions about law, visibility, and the conditions that shape policy change. Rather than focusing on individual behavior, the conversation highlights how stigma and criminalization are sustained through systems of governance—and how public dialogue can expose those dynamics.
Archived here as part of Robert’s Lived Experience Archive, this appearance represents a moment of public witnessing and civic engagement that informs—but does not replace—his current work focused on systems analysis, policy reform, and institutional accountability related to HIV criminalization.
