Pedro Zamora

Tonight, just like every night, I have the tv on while I'm doing my homework. Usually I am more productive with the tv on but tonight I got involved in a movie. It's about Pedro Zamora and his battle with HIV; surprisingly enough this movie is on MTV. I know its test week so we don't really have any new information to blog about and last time we had a test he said he didn't care what we blogged about but seeing this movie just really impacted me to talk about it. I think it is a very touching and informative movie/documentary on his life as an activist. I know we didn't talk much about HIV or AIDS in our class but it is still an ongoing struggle today and it is important for people to be informed. I recommend watching this movie just to understand another point of view.
