HAPPENING HIGHLIGHTS
‘Unspeakable’ Part 3:
Let’s Talk About It
February 28, 2023
7–8:30 p.m. EST
For Rare Disease Day, HFA is providing the opportunity to
continue learning and healing from our community’s important
history. Kicking off Bleeding Disorders Awareness Month
(March), the conversation continues with Robert C. Cooper,
blood brother, creator, writer, director and executive producer
of the TV series “Unspeakable.”
Based on first-person experience and accounts, “Unspeakable”
is a mini-series that chronicles the emergence of HIV and
hepatitis throughout Canada during the early 1980s and ’90s and the tragedy that resulted after thousands with
bleeding disorders were infected by tainted blood.
Join Cooper and special guest panelists, including cast members from the show, for this Q&A session as we
dive deeper into the individual episodes (5–7) of “Unspeakable.” Register at www.hemophiliafed.org/events/
