Statement from the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force on National Black
HIV/AIDS Awareness Day:
"As we mark National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day
2014, we must redouble our efforts to―as this year's theme and action
suggests―be our brother's and sister's keeper and get educated, get
tested, get involved and get treated. We must reverse the alarming rates
of infection currently found in LGBT communities of color and advance―on
every level―an all out fight against HIV/AIDS. If everyone gets back in
the fight, we can
win this battle. We can end HIV/AIDS."
Statement attributed to: Rev Darlene Nipper, Deputy Executive Director, National Gay and Lesbian
Task Force
The Creating Change Conference 2014 held a special and plenary on
HIV/AIDS entitled “Why We Can't Wait: Let's End AIDS Now,” according to a release.
