More often than not, our stories are not only told
by others, but also narrated from their
perspective. Our African Story is a series of
community-pertinent topics whose intention is to
give an African voice and ownership to some of the
most riveting issues of the day. I have decided to
kick off the series with the issue of HIV/AIDs and
the effects of the epidemic on the African
immigrant community in Minnesota.
