N2  - Transmedia Collage: Histories of Violence and Futures of Health on Chicago's South Side. Transmedia Collage is a historical transmedia project that illustrates how a climate of structural violence has impacted the health and well-being of black adolescents on Chicago's South Side.     Chicago's South Side is one of the largest contiguous African-American urban communities in the U.S. Despite its vibrant history as a political and cultural center of black life, this area is one of the most racially segregated and isolated communities in the country. Today, national and local media paint a picture of the area, and its youth, as dangerous and disorderly. This project argued that rather than focusing on interpersonal violence, attention should be focused on the area's structural violence. This collage, specifically, is fully text-based and addresses life during the AIDS epidemic and the War on Drugs through the character, Matt Green. Using silhouette, positive and self-affirming text appears inside the protagonists' head, while negative, homophobic, racist text is placed outside of the protagonists' head. This represents the interior and exterior environments that Matt Green, a young black, gay, HIV-positive man, had to navigate during this time.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
