HIV/AIDS is without doubt the worst epidemic to hit humankind since the Black Death. As of 2004 an estimated 40 million people were living with the disease, and about 20 million had died. Despite rapid scientific advances there is still no cure and the drugs are expensive and toxic. In the developing world, especially in parts of Africa, life expectancy has plummeted to below 35 years, causing a serious decline in economic growth, a sharp increase in orphans, and the imminent collapse of health care systems. The news is not all bleak though. There have been unprecedented breakthroughs in understanding diseases and developing drugs. Because the disease is so closely linked to sexual activity and drug use, the need to know and change behavior has caused us to re-evaluate what it means to be human and how we should operate in the globalizing world. This Very Small Introduction tackles the knowledge, the international and local politics, the fascinating demographics, and the devastating consequences of the disease, and suggests how we must respond.

Tanzanian Children Sing about HIV/AIDS
This footage is from a small village school in Arusha, Tanzania. The clip illustrates how local people are raising awareness and addressing the crisis themselves. In the video, 9-year-ancient orphan Glory Abraham leads her class in a song about the AIDS crisis in her people. To gather more about Glory, you can try out out my blog at epicchange.org To me, this small video speaks volumes about AIDS awareness and activism among Tanzanian children and their hopes regarding the prospect of their people. The school that these children attend was founded by a local Tanzanian woman in 2003 and is currently caught up in a project with Epic Change, an establishment I founded last year after the theater volunteer work in their people. You can get caught up at www.epicchange.org.
