I want my thoughts as a woman living with HIV for 30 years ... to encourage and bring hope to other women leaders living with HIV.
The Well Project is a sisterhood and advocacy organization/ Dedicated to women with HIV and educating civilization...
I know by being honest this may upset some people but I have to be real.
What will you remember when I'm no longer here?/ What footprints did I leave on your soul/ In what kind of memories will I appear/ These are things beyond my control
There is a different kind of pain in realizing the people who gave you life aren't necessarily the people who make you feel safe.
With pride and urgency, I carried my message of HIV prevention and stigma reduction, delivered with the fervour our community deserves.
Check out The Well Project's A Girl Like Me LIVE!, an interactive, livestreaming series created to advance health and wellness education among women living with and vulnerable to HIV.
I'm in awe of black women/ They show up every single day/ While legislators are trimmin'/ All their rights and freedoms away
Many of my thoughts land in a space of gratitude because my heart remains full that I get to meaningfully engage in work day-to-day that supports positive impact on the lives of women living with HIV.
For a long time, I thought silence was protecting me. I thought if I didn't say something out loud, maybe it wouldn't feel real.
