End AIDS. We can. We must. We will. Harvard AIDS Coalition presents AIDS WEEK 2002 (back)
This t-shirt was made for AIDS Week 2002, a week of programming that included panel discussions, teach-ins, candlelight vigils, and social events.
Justin D. Gest writes in The Harvard Crimson (November 19, 2002):
Approximately six hundred local college students and community members rallied in support of more funding for global AIDS prevention and treatment, braving wet and frigid weather yesterday underneath the concrete overhang of City Hall. Organised by the Student Global AIDS Campaign, the rally featured impassioned speeches from Ms. Universe 1999 Mpule K. Kwelagobe [from Botswana], Harvard Economics Professor and Director of Center for International Development Jeffrey D. Sachs ’76 and a phone address from movie star and comedian Chris Tucker.
