The AIDS Quilt 1

I remember the magnificent witness of the AIDS quilt onthe National Mall. My daughter and I walked thru its"seams", amazed at the rich lives it connected andrecalled--all woven into our fabric.

Where is it? I have thought about it thru the years. I wouldlove to see it displayed again, as a remembrance of themeaning those lives taught us and the acts they inspired. Iwould love to see grandchildren and another generation of kin and friends, of activists and ordinary Americans knowthe powerful voice of its silence. The strength of its peaceshrouded in the gifts of love offered by its panels.
