Stand Against Hate
Hear from passionate team members serving the DMV region on the force behind Stand Against Hate.
GUEST BIO:
Barbara Chinn is the senior program manager for HIV testing, counseling, prevention, and community outreach. She’s worked at AHF for twelve years, and has served in a variety of other roles including Regional Director and program manager. - LinkedIn
Mike McVicker is the geography regional director for D.C., Maryland, and Virginia. They have been with AHF for ten years. - LinkedIn
CORE TOPICS + DETAILS:
[5:31] - Standing Against Hate
What it means personally to each of our guests
For Barbara, standing against hate starts inward— as a person of color she’s experienced discrimination herself, and she now works with people to try to help them overcome the various challenges that come from hate. Meanwhile, Mike is energized by the way that the once-popular ‘No Nate’ slogan has evolved to become even more proactive. We’re not just saying ‘no’ to hate, we’re actively combatting it every chance we get.
[7:33] - Strategies for the LGBTQ Community
Going beyond PRIDE to activism
Barbara and Mike agree that being outspoken as an organization about the problems and discrimination facing the LGBTQ community is central to AHF’s mission— including influencing legislators to remove some of the barriers in place against the community. This is paired with local activism in communities impacted by HIV, from offering free testing to pharmaceutical services and more.
[14:44] - AHF & Public Health
Serving patients & fighting misconceptions
While AHF is sometimes presented as an ‘anti-PrEP’ organization, it’s actually one of the biggest fillers of PrEP prescriptions in the world. Meanwhile, local wellness programs serve as collaborative practices between pharmacies and public health, using pharmacists to offer clinical services to underserved patients.
[17:35] - Heading into PRIDE
Renewed energy and activism
Mike and Barbara speak about how this year’s PRIDE festival feels particularly poignant in the wake of discriminatory legislation such as the Don’t Say Gay bill. They’re both excited to bring an edge of defiance to PRIDE festivities this year, and continue fighting for LGBTQ rights every year and every day.
RESOURCES:
- [11:59] Capital Pride
- [13:57] What is PrEP?
