Commemorative Program for World AIDS Day (Dec.1)
November 30, 2008 - 5:31pm — ElisaCCTV will present a specially produced commemorative video piece by local artist London Bridgez in honor of World AIDS Day (Dec.1). London's spoken word piece " Can’t Stop (Loving You)" pushes our expectations of the genre, building creative bridges between blues and soul. Her work mimics afro Caribbean oral traditions of story telling about love, life, and loss.
CCTV will be commemorating World AIDS Day by darkening our local cable Channel 10 and displaying a continuous scroll of names of Cambridge community members lost to HIV/AIDS along with this programming.
World AIDS Day will be recognized around the globe on December 1st with events that highlight progress, raise awareness, and remind us of how much work still needs to be done.
