Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Nobel Peace Laureate, Joins the March on
Washington

* <http://takeaction.aidshealth.org/site/R?i=mwGd2GFAlf0DB5bPLCzuUg>Archbishop
Desmond Tutu*, a Nobel Peace Laureate, is one of the greatest living moral
icons of our time who was a key leader in the fight against apartheid in
South Africa. His strength of conviction and outspoken activism to stop
injustices-including the tragedy of HIV/AIDS in his own country and around
the world - have never been silenced.

Archbishop Tutu has been active in the defense of human rights and uses his
high profile to fight for the oppressed. He has campaigned to fight
HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, poverty, racism, sexism, homophobia, and
transphobia. Tutu received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1984; the Albert
Schweitzer Prize for Humanitarianism in 1986; the Pacem in Terris Award in
1987; the Sydney Peace Prize in 1999; the Gandhi Peace Prize in 2005; and
the United States Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2009.

Archbishop Tutu suffered from TB in his youth and has been active in
assisting those afflicted, especially as TB and HIV/AIDS deaths have become
intrinsically linked in South Africa. "Those of you who work to care for
people suffering from AIDS and TB are wiping a tear from God’s eye," Tutu
said.

"Archbishop Desmond Tutu is a beloved leader for us all in Africa. His
courage and wisdom inspire us to fight corruption and sometimes
overwhelming odds to do everything we can to stop HIV/AIDS. We are so
grateful that he has joined the Keep the Promise March on Washington and we
welcome his much-respected voice, " said Dr. Penninah Iutung Amor, Africa
Bureau Chief for the AIDS Healthcare Foundation.

Archbishop Tutu urges participation in the March on Washington calling on
world leaders to keep the promise and take action on HIV/AIDS, because
"together, we can stop AIDS."

Join us on July 22 – 2pm at the Washington Monument.
