Elizabeth Taylor, RIP

I believe it wouldn’t be right if i wouldn’t pay my respect to a great personality, great actress and even greater fighter of the social stigma about HIV and AIDS since the very early days. Elisabeth Taylor died yesterday at age of 79.
Yesterday the Read Ribbon Army’s Facebook page has posted many posts in tribute to the great STAR. Herewith one of them:
Elizabeth Taylor was the first person in the entertainment industry to stand up and take charge when few were willing to listen, and even fewer were willing to help. 
“Elizabeth did something when it required real courage,” said Elton John. Since then she has remained at the forefront of the battle against this disease, a loyalty that has earned her the name the “Joan of Arc of AIDS.”
Elizabeth Taylor, R I P
