The
Black community needs to hear from families on the devastating effects
of AIDS in our community. So many people are still largely unaware about
what's going on and how many people are affected by AIDS. I would love
to see interviews with families and individuals, doctors and community
workers . It would especially insightful to hear why our community seems
so unaware of AIDS. I look forward to doing a signing for this project.
