I always knew Africa was plagued with Aids. In fact, Oprah made numerous shows where she made a trip to south africa and bring the Aids epidemic to the world. In fact, i have countless of times said- Aids was sort of a good population controler. I was mean of course, but i spoke from the heart, and that should count for something ma ha?
Anyway, for me the AIDS epidemic in Africa , Asia, Eastern Europe was simply a far removed reality but not really personal or fully comprehended. This zimbabwian woman personalized it for me. I saw a face of aids victim family, as opposed to the aids victims themselves. I think that was my point.
