Today is Tuesday April 4th and I am sitting in the office finishing my lunch. In a few minutes I’m off to Fitchburg high’s PeerCorps group that meets after school. Last week a most dramatic moment occurred when one student told a story of her best friend and the news that she has HIV/AIDS. At first, many of the students in our group thought the young woman was talking about a role-playing scenario that we often practice in our meetings. When I realized that this wasn’t acting, but was real life, the group listened intently to the story of a young 19-year-old teen that found out 3 days earlier that she was pregnant AND tested positive for HIV.
It so happened that Eric Rubera, a Fitchburg State College video major, was there filming the stop action theater for training purposes. You can see the unedited moment of real life drama by clicking here. |
