(still and video from the DJ Vlad YouTube channel)

If you’ve seen or read DaBaby’s stigmatizing comments about people living with HIV, then go take a shower. After you do, come back to your computer or phone, sit down and watch the video above ASAP.

Spoiler Alert: it’s a positive message from Bfb Da Packman about HIV, which acknowledges the stigma that people with HIV face. The kind of stigma that fuels the misguided words of DaBaby, and like-minded people who look down on us. And while many people are rightfully attacking DaBaby, the scary part is that DaBaby isn’t alone in his ignorant view of people with HIV.

But instead of piling on and focusing on the negative, I thought it was important to thank and celebrate allies who put themselves out there to make people confront their own biases. I know that watching the video above made me forget about the verbal stink that wafted through the screen in DaBaby Made a PooPoo In His Diaper clip. My hope is that Bfb’s words and spirit will do the same for you.

Positively Yours,
Shawn
