As an African American woman and physician in training, I know that this epidemic will change fabric of our communities. Earlier this morning, I read an article in which the Ford Foundation acknowledged that globally "people are living longer than ever with (HIV and AIDS), deeply entrenched social taboos continue to stand in the way of AIDS sufferers living lives characterized by dignity, purpose, and access to opportunity."
