World AIDS Day, 30 Years.



This Year marks the 30th Anniversary of AIDS.

I'm proud to say I worked with ActUp-LA as their Travel Agent.
ActUp-LA went on the road for many actions, from the CDC in Atlanta, a Medical Fraud Conventions in Kansas City, (which I attended and got arrested in Civil Disobedience), Chicago had a Large Action, and of course several Actions in San Francisco, One I recall coincided with Gay Pride.

It was an exciting time.
Activism can be very rewarding.
You get a chance to meet a lot of People you wouldn't otherwise come in contact with.
And...
We did evoke change, real change.
