"One of the processes of your life is to constantly break down that inferiority, to constantly reaffirm that I Am Somebody."

— Alvin Ailey
Dancer, choreographer, and director #AlvinAiley died of complications from AIDS on December 1st, 1989.

On #WorldAIDSDay I honor the legacy of every artist, dancer, writer, musician, parent, bricklayer, sex worker, office drone, nurse, and activist whose lives were stolen by this disease.

We remember you.

Watch 2:35-3:30 to see the contrast between entitled white mediocrity and godlike dance skills. I'm so glad the Alvin Ailey folks got to show off; they're all so amazing!
