“The world has been taught for a long time that HIV looks like death. What I try to do is show people that HIV can be sexy and cute and funny… all the things that you don’t expect.” – Phindile Sithole-Spong

It’s  12 : 00 PM on day 1799 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, pray,  read Romans 6, publish my Disability of the Day feature, learn one new thing  –Xmas and Rosh Hashana. Pomegranates appear on many Greek and Jewish tables during the holidays. At weddings and at New Years, Greeks break a pomegranate on the ground for good luck. – have breakfast and work on my future project.

Yesterday I watched season 3 episode 11 of 21 Icons featuring HIV Activist Phindile Sithole-Spong I love that Phindile has taken it upon herself to rebrand HIV .Watch “21 Icons : Phindile Sithole-Spong : Short Film” below:
