Approximately 1.1 million people in the U.S. are living with HIV today. About 14% of them (1 in 7) don't know it and need testing. Sexuality does not protect one from STDs like HIV.

We Rose
From Africa’s heart, we rose
Already a people, our faces ebon, our bodies lean,
We rose
Skills of art, life, beauty and family
Crushed by forces we knew nothing of, we rose
Survive we must, we did,
We rose...

How sad it is that "#StrangeFruit," is an 81 year old blues song still in need of singing. Billie Holiday resisted to voices telling her not to record this song, but she new how important it was. She endured much to raise the cause to the ears of the masses.

#BlackOutTuesday #BlackOut #defundthepolice #dayofpause Can I consider that it's time we #boycottSocialMedia in general !? I understand the power of social media: especially in contexts of folk like #45 ... your lives matter, but we can't ignore the voices by using THAT TAG.

I'm wondering what it will take
For my country to rise
First we admit our mistakes
And then we open our eyes
Or nature succumbs to one last dumb decision
And America the beautiful
Is just one big subdivision-Ani Difranco "Subdivisions"
