Black Blogging To End AIDS
posted in Thoughts, Health, Action Alert | | | View blog reactions | Print This PostSaturday December 1st is World AIDS Day, as December 1st is World AIDS Day every year.
Time escaped me, and I’ve been remiss in putting forward this proposal; but I think we should do a blogging campaign around this. It’s the 11th hour, so I’m going to make it simple.
I’m calling it Black Blogging To End AIDS. The purpose will be to raise AIDS awareness, most particularly to help prevention of the spread of the disease in the Black community. Or if you’re not Black and you want to participate with the campaign to raise awareness in general, just call it Blogging To End AIDS.
Since it is such short notice, and people haven’t had time to find out about it and prepare, I think it would be best to make it a week long event starting Saturday and going through Friday; which means you can do your post (or multiple post would be even better) at anytime during the week, as opposed to just on one specific day. If you’re at your computer on Saturday though, it would be nice if you at least acknowledge World AIDS Day on Saturday and give a link to some information; then you can come back and do your more elaborate post when you have time.
Please sign up in the comments with your name or net handle and FULL clickable url so that I can do a wrap up post highlighting all the bloggers that participated.

There’s plenty of information on the web that you can research about AIDS, including the particular issues for the Black Diaspora, so it’s not necessary that you have a great amount of AIDS knowledge to participate. You can be effective by simply pulling together some information from others sources and putting it in front of people.
You can even use info from my blogging on AIDS here. Just put the term AIDS in my search box either at the top right of the page or in the right side panel to retrieve my many post on the subject.
Actually, I did it for you .
Again, please sign up in the comments!
