"History will judge us on how we respond to the AIDS emergency in Africa...whether
we stood around with watering cans and watched while a whole continent burst into
flames...or not." - Bono


I'm putting together a simple, straightforward, quick and easy to understand website on the AIDS situation in Africa for a class project.. will link once it's online, should be decent. The main difficulty with so many problems out there is that people think it will take more effort than they can - or want to - give in order to make a difference, or they think it's too complicated and they've not the brainpower or time to learn about it. (Or, y'know, they think it doesn't affect them, but that's a level of ignorance I'm going to gloss off for my own piece of mind.) So the entire point of this site is to make it as easy as possible. Small, short, and to the point.

In refreshing my memory on the statistics and things, I bounced around from DATA to the One Campaign and a few other places... and landed on MakePovertyHistory.

This is the video: http://www.makepovertyhistory.org/video5.html It's short, please watch.


On a similar note.. I'm going to get a set of ten of these bracelets, they're $1 apiece, I can't wear ten myself, who wants one? :)
