Description
They say that one good turn deserves another and after the outpouring of love and support I received for my weekend to end breast cancer, I'm inclined to believe that. As such, I'm writing today to draw attention to the fight against AIDS, a cause near and dear to many but more specifically, my friend GeneratingHype . For those of us old enough to remember, the subject of AIDS was a media bonanza in the 90's and it was constantly addressed in every newspaper, political platform, tv spot and magazine. They talked about it and they talked about it often. Unfortunately, that need to talk has slowed down, but the epidemic that is AIDS has not.
Over 25 million people have been lost to AIDS so far, and 4.3 million people were infected with HIV in 2006. The spread of HIV is quickening, with more people infected in 2006 than in any previous year.
Why do I care? I care because it affects people I care about, I care.. because I'm human.
Information, education and communication are among the most important elements in the response to AIDS. To be effective, information must be understood and believed and it's probably no surprise to anyone reading this, that there is a negative stigma associated with this disease.
How Can I help?
I'm glad you asked, there are several ways:

The walk this year was amazing. I halfway cried when I reached the end. Walking 8 miles is nothing compared to the pain that people have to go through when they or people they love are diagnosed. I can never imagine what it's like but I give my full support to those who have AID's.

something should be posted about the immagine peace tower unfolding. Yoko Ono constructed it in honor of John Lennon and posters saying "Imagine Peace" are available at [link] to spread the wish of peace in the world. Kindof in the spirit of the legendary War Is Over ( if you want it) posters.
