World Aids Day

Today is a day to mourn the losses we have faced as a
community and a day to celebrate the gains we have made. Close to 30 years
ago, AIDS was killing us. Admitting you were ill meant censure, job loss,
and isolation. There are still challenges to this disease. There is still
social stigma. But there is also federal funding, despite the last few years
of abstinence only blockades, there is more hope than there was. In some
ways our hope has been a stumbling block. The new generation doesn't respect
the depth of consequences that AIDS can have for them because they haven't
watched their friends dying. Join Boulder County AIDS Project tonight for
their World AIDS Day Concert, Boulder Dinner Theatre. Contact Kate Hibberd
