On World AIDS Day (December 1st), Georgia Arnold fittingly showed the power of storytelling in demystifying the stigma associated with AIDS. She takes the audience on the journey of MTV Staying Alive Foundation, and the young activist in South Africa whose story helped create their mission. Through a talk that has been 20 years in the making she dares the audience to see beyond the prejudice and embrace the humanity, with the poignant admonition- ‘’it is the stigma that kills human beings, sometimes more than the disease itself’’. Intro music - Blue boss by Sampa the great Georgia Arnold is the Senior Vice President of Social Responsibility at Viacom International Media Networks. Responsible for developing social initiatives for the company, Ms Arnold has initiated unprecedented partnerships and campaigns for MTV on HIV and AIDS awareness including the multi-award winning MTV Shuga. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
