The Faces of AIDS is a compassionate portrayal of people struggling with the complexities of this devastating disease. The creators of the exhibit say the personal testimonials of the extraordinary people in the exhibit are a potent means of combating fear, denial, homophobia and racism. They illuminate the social, political and cultural barriers that must be overcome in order for people to recognize their risk and gain access to appropriate health care.
The exhibition at O''Hare is centrally located in the crossover hallway in front of the Admirals Club® entrance, between Terminal 3''s H and K concourses, where it will be viewed by thousands of travelers each day. The remainder of the Faces of AIDS airport tour schedule is as follows: St. Louis, Aug. 18-21; Dallas/Fort Worth, Aug. 25-27; and Los Angeles (LAX), Sept. 8-11. The exhibition will also appear at American''s corporate offices near DFW Airport and at the Dallas office of JP Morgan Chase.
American Airlines is proud to present this compelling exhibition for our customers and airline and airport employees at four of our busiest facilities. We salute the American Airlines employee resource groups on our diversity council who organized this tour and thank our friends at JP Morgan Chase for their support, said Debra Hunter-Johnson, vice president-Human Resources, who oversees diversity initiatives at American. For more than a decade, American has led the airline industry in providing support of organizations that promote HIV/AIDS awareness, research and the delivery services to people living with AIDS and those who care for them.
The exhibition tour is a project of three of the American Airlines Employee Resource Groups on the corporate AMR Diversity Advisory Council -- the Gay, xxxxxxx, Bisexual and Transgender Employees of AMR (GLEAM), the African-American and the Hispanic/Latino groups. The Diversity Advisory Council is comprised of 14 Employee Resource Groups, each representing different ethnicities, religions, ages and lifestyles to promote greater understanding among American Airlines/American Eagle employees and customers.
