Youth Encouraged to Get Tested for National HIV Testing Day

By Briana Myricks, Long Beach Generation Y Examiner - June 25, 2011

National HIV Testing Day, implemented by the National Association of People with AIDS, is scheduled for June 27. This year will be the 17th annual campaign to encourage people of all ages to "Take the Test, Take Control". All sexually active young adults, especially those who have yet to be tested, are urged to participate in the movement. This is just one event out of multiple campaigns supported by AIDS.gov, the government funded website that has a goal of increasing HIV testing, including movements based on nationality, sexuality, and gender.
 
Echo Boomers are no strangers to STD testing campaigns. Television networks targeted towards the young generation have their own programs like MTV's GYT, standing for Get Yourself Testing, and BET's Rap-It-Up. Other organizations like Planned Parenthood also encourage safe sex and knowing your status, as to protect your sex partners from receiving a sexually transmitted disease you may have been unaware of.
 
Testing centers are available throughout Long Beach and in surrounding cities. The Center for Disease Control has a service called the National HIV and STD Testing Resources, which allows you to insert your zip code and find STD and HIV testing facilities near you. Clinics, centers, and hospitals will be offering free testing on National HIV Testing Day, which should get more young adults interested in learning their results who were possibly deterred from the cost of a test and lack of health insurance.
 
The City of Long Beach has a HIV Epidemiology Program, in which they have gathered data regarding Long Beach HIV/AIDS cases. As of December 31, 2010, the city had over 1,300 cases of HIV with a 3% mortality rate. 87% of those cases were among males, with the majority of cases among Caucasians and from male to male contact. AIDS statistics were even worse in Long Beach, with over 6,000 cases and a 48% mortality rate. The majority were still among males, Caucasians, and male to male contact. This is not a big surprise, as Long Beach has a large gay & lesbian population.
 
Although there are no National HIV Testing Day events in Long Beach, there are several in Los Angeles that will provide rapid on-site testing, where participants will be able to know their status in 20 minutes, as well as plenty of information and resources on the condition. It's important to know if you're HIV positive not only for yourself, but for your partner as well. Take time on June 27 to get tested.
Take Action:
  • Update: DADT has been repealed. President Obama has kept his promise!
  • Boycott Bill O'Reilly and FOX News and their advertisers. Bill discussed a French commercial by McDonalds that was meant to show that McDonalds is Gay Friendly. Bill said what is next? Is McDonalds going to be Al-Qaida friendly as well? Imagine - Bill O'Reilly compares Gays to Al-Qaida! In conclusion, O'Reilly expressed out-right Hatrad of the LGBT Community.
  • Boycott Arizona the home of "hater" - U.S. Senator John McCain. Arizona's Hateful anti-Immigration Law - encourages racial profiling and increases hatred towards minorities. A remedy: Demand Republicans to support Immigration Reform (The Dream Act). Further, Senator McCain voted against ending DADT and Blocked Immigration reform!
  • Boycott Target, Best Buy, Gold's Gym - for donating money towards anti-gay political candidates/organizations. Update: (12/26/2010): Target is continuing to donate to anti-gay groups/causes/politicians. Update 03/08/11 - Lady Gaga Ends Target Partnership, Reportedly Over Target's Poor LGBT Stance. Update 3/25/2010 - Target displays their hypocrisy and Sues California Gay Rights Group for Lobbying Outside Stores. Target is attempting to block the LGBT right of free speech! STOP SHOPPING AT TARGET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Update 4/8/2011: Target lost it's case to stop the LGBT from canvassing in front of their stores. A huge PR Disaster for TARGET! Perhaps Target should go out of business as they betrayed their investers and customers. Target contributed massive funds to a politician who would like to exterminate gays. Now, Target can not stop us from Boycotting them, nor picketing, nor talking to customers near their stores; although, Target allows a anti-gay company such as the Salvation Army to stand outside their door and speak with customers and raise money. Isn't this a double standard? Perhaps TARGET would better understand the issue if they cared about David Kato - Uganda, who was slain because he is gay! That is because Uganda wants to kill gay people. Again, TARGET invested in a political candidate that would Kill the Gays!
  • End DOMA (Defense of Marriage Act). Prevents Federal employees and Gays in the Military from gaining equal benefits. Prevents Gay Partners from gaining equal benefits.
  • Pass ENDA (Employee Non-Discrimination Act). ENDA would prevent employment discrimination of LGBT workforce.
  • Boycott Salvation Army as they will not hire Gays! "DO NOT DONATE TO THEM."
  • BOYCOTT "Chick-fil-a" for donating to anti-gay marriage groups.
  • BOYCOTT KOCH INDUSTRIES PRODUCTS- to include their products: Angel Soft toilet paper / Brawny paper towels / Dixie plates, bowls, napkins & cups / Mardi Gras napkins and towels / Quilted Northern toilet paper / Soft 'n Gentle toilet paper / Sparkle napkins / Vanity fair napkins / Zee napkins / Georgia-Pacific paper products & envelopes / All Georgia-Pacific lumber & building products (INVISTA Products) / Lycra / Stainmaster Carpet. The billionaire - Koch brothers are ultra republican - tea bag founders/supporters that do not support causes of the LGBT community.
  • Boycott WALMART - The National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, force criticized Wal-Mart for denying employee benefits to same-s-x partners and for failing to prohibit discrimination based on gender identity. By comparison, the group said two other chain stores with a strong presence in New York, Costco and Walgreens, did much better.
  • NEW: "Tune Out Trump", Boycott all Trump Hotel, casinos, holdings, The Apprentice and NBC Network! At CPAC, Trump said he is considering a run for president as a Republican. In a interview with the Des Moines Register, Trump added that he opposes all forms of legal recognition for gay couples, not just marriage. "They should not be able to marry," he said. So why does NBC keep the Apprentice when Donald Trump has stated he may run for president? After making racist remarks about Obama and recv'g public backlash, Trump decided not to run for president after NBC renewed his awful TV Show. How can NBC renew the clown's show after he pulled all such low-class shenanigans? Boycott NBC! Boycott advertisers of The Apprentice and Trump's other business's. Don't shop at any bullding with Donald Trump's name to include Trump Hotels, Casinos, Condo's, Offices, Shops! The Donald has expressed extreme Hatred towards gays and blacks with his birther remarks and anti-gay rhetoric. Remember how poorly Trump treated Rosie O'Donnel? Now we know why he did that! It was hate against a lesbian as we now know he is biget. Unforgiveable! Dump NBC because they re-newed Donald Trump's "The Apprentice"! NBC, Really? Update June 1, 2011: Trump now claims that Obama's long form, original birth certificate is fake. And NBC keeps this hater? NBC, You Kidding Us?

Neil Patrick Harris Announces Engagement, Celebs Praise NY Gay Marriage Bill
Entertainment Tonight News - June 25, 2011
 

Neil Patrick Harris revealed on Saturday that he's been engaged for years while waiting for the right opportunity to marry his partner David Burtka. Now, he's joining numerous celebrities in praising the approval of a bill in New York State legalizing gay marriage.

"It PASSED! Marriage equality in NY!! Yes!! Progress!! Thank you everyone who worked so hard on this!! A historic night!" Patrick Harris tweeted after New York's legislature gave final approval to the marriage law late Friday.

The actor followed this up later with another tweet: "David and I did propose to each other, but over five years ago! We've been wearing engagement rings for ages, waiting for an available date."

His partner confirmed the news on his Twitter feed: "Neil and I have been wearing rings for years. We have been engaged for a while. It did not just happen." Patrick Harris and Burtka are the parents of twins.

Ellen DeGeneres also took to her Twitter to react to the historic news: "I'm thrilled about the news from NY. Marriage equality! Every day we get a little closer. What an amazing feeling."

Lady Gaga tweeted that she got emotional over the news: "I can't stop crying. We did it kids."

Later the pop star added: "The revolution is ours to fight for love, justice+equality. Rejoice NY, and propose."

Singer Ricky Martin -- also the father of twins -- reacted by calling for celebration: "Time to celebrate!!! Marriage Equality for NYers! Its about... love!"

"30 Rock" star Alec Baldwin cheered the New York law -- set to take effect in 30 days, tweeting: "Marriage equality.... vote yes." He also thanked 'Sex and the City' star Cynthia Nixon -- who is engaged to partner Christine Marinoni and hopes to marry her in New York state -- for lobbying heavily in support of the measure. "OK...congrats, again, to Cynthia Nixon for all of her hard work on behalf of marriage equality."
Every gay and lesbian person who has been lucky enough to survive the turmoil of growing up is a survivor. Survivors always have an obligation to those who will face the same challenges."
