Stand Against AIDS In Oxford Develops National AIDS Strategy
In preparation for the upcoming 2008 Presidential election a collective of AIDS activists and people living with HIV and AIDS gathered in Oxford, Mississippi just days before the first presidential debate to identify and create a national plan and strategy for ending AIDS and supporting folks living with HIV/AIDs.
“Nothing for us, without us,” they declared.
Caravans from around the country traveled to Mississippi to demand that the next president, Obama or McCain be accountable and develop a national plan to end the HIV & AIDS epidemic.
Scenes From The Day
With activities including media trainings, rallies in the Oxford Town Square, town hall meetings, and affinity sessions focusing on the various groups impacted by HIV/AIDS – the LGBT community, senior citizens, African American women, the Latina community, etc. the intent of the meetings were to flesh out, identify, and mobilize the AIDS community, its allies, and advocates.
