We envision a world in which AIDS is no longer a death sentence. We must confront the underlying causes of the AIDS plague and poverty, inequalities of race, gender, and class, sexual stigmas, and a politics that allows us to deny our responsibilities to and for each other. We have the tools to fight AIDS: prevention, treatment, support for orphans and families. We will not accept excuses for inaction; we will not accept false barriers that divide us; we will not accept the myth that any of us are powerless. We pledge ourselves to the struggle against AIDS a struggle that becomes a fight against apathy, against indifference, against injustice. By forming a global youth movement we will rise to the challenge of fighting AIDS. We will halt this pandemic. AIDS is the crisis of our generation, and we will be defined by our response to it. Years from now, we will have to answer to our own children: did we stand by as millions died, or did we take action? |
