What a wonderful idea. This project will make people think on about issues that involve all of us. We are not immune to the ramification
of discrimination or aids.
As a society, why do we go about life without reflecting on it's consequences? We need to start to care about each other and address how our actions impact one another.
It is very important to answer the questions "Why?" For our answers will lead to resolutions of the problems.
