I hosted a special show highlighting World AIDS Day in The Locher Room on Tuesday, December 1, 2020. World AIDS Day provides an opportunity for people worldwide to unite in the fight against HIV, to show support for people living with HIV, and to commemorate those who have died from an AIDS-related illness.

Joining me for a frank conversation about the state of HIV / AIDS in America are two GMHC staff members, Krishna Stone, the Director of Community Relations in the Communications Department at Gay Men’s Health Crisis and Gregg Bruckno, who is a long-term survivor and works with long-term survivors. GMHC is the world’s first HIV/AIDS service organization and their mission is to end the AIDS epidemic and uplift the lives of all affected.

I am also thrilled to have a very good friend Tyler J. Helms joining in the conversation. Tyler at 28 years old shared his HIV status bravely with the world on December 1, 2009 in a Facebook post. He has never shied away from sharing his thoughts, feelings and complete honesty about his life experiences and living with HIV in New York City. If you haven't read one of Tyler's blog posts I highly recommend you do. https://www.tylerjhelms.com/.
