WASHINGTON, DC– The National Minority AIDS Council (NMAC) joins the country in mourning the loss of Senator Edward Kennedy. One of the longest serving politicians in the nation, Kennedy was the last living member of the original Kennedy political dynasty, which included brothers President John F. Kennedy and Senator Robert Kennedy. Senator Kennedy’s work in Washington, DC was characterized by his dedication to continuing his brothers’ legacy in the Civil Rights Movement, addressing the social, economic and health disparities that undermine the well-being of underserved communities in this country.
