Go to this link from National Public Radio to hear a recording by Thembi a young South African woman who became a aids activist and very popular for demystifying aids in her county and humanizing the face of this horrible disease. Thembi was 16 when she first learned that she had contacted this disease. Her voice resonates with emotional maturity, the musical voice and intonation evokes the rich culture of this part of southern africa…………..this weekend she died. Learn about this battle in a modern world fought in the most developed county in Africa.
