Today is National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day
sometimes i feel like a broken record
each year encouraging our communities to pay attention to HIV/AIDS
each year it seems to get harder to get folks to listen
each year the rates keep rising
for African Americans that is…
especially African American youth
please take the time to think about what you have been doing
better yet think about what your partners could be doing
without your knowledge
get tested for hiv and other sexually transmitted infections
remember the tests do not prevent you from getting something
so you’ve gotta
abstain from sex
that mean NO to all types of sex
or
protect yourself by using condoms
make sure to learn how to use and dispose of one properly
if it sounds like i am preaching that’s because I AM!
we have to keep focused until the number of new infections
get down to ZERO
