Remembering the ARC/AIDS Vigil: Day of Action on HIV and Homelessness
When: November 11, 2011 - Friday
10:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
Where: Occupy San Francisco
What: On October 27, 1985 , two HIV+ gay men chained themselves to the doors of the old federal building at UN Plaza to protest government inaction on HIV/AIDS. Soon they were joined by others, and maintained presence 24/7 for the next several years.
They slept in tents and staffed an education table, constantly pressuring the government to put funding and resources into services for people living with HIV/AIDS. This was the spark for an AIDS activism that used direct action tactics to accomplish its goals.
Sound familiar? The Occupy movement draws many parallels to those used in t he ARC/AIDS Vigil.
Today, people living with HIV/AIDS still face many struggles - on of the most overwhelming of which being homelessness. There are up to 2,500 homeless people with HIV/AIDS in San Francisco. 50% of those became homeless due to real estate speculator eviction - either through the Ellis Act or Owner Move In.
We will speak out, demanding that the new mayor of San Francisco commit to ENDING homelessness for HIV+ people, queer youth and trans folks within 4 years.
We wil also be offering a housing advice clinic, needle exchange, free HIV testing, and organic vegetarian lunch from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
Please show up wearing red.
Organized by: AIDS Housing Alliance SF, Homonomixxx, and St James Infimary.
