Just check out the CVS in Columbia Heights:


In 2006 a group of students in Washington, DC noticed that condoms were kept locked at some CVS stores in the city--at 22 out of 50 stores to be exact. This created a significant barrier for customers trying to buy them who had to either ask for a cashier's assistance or push a button to send an announcement over the store's intercom.
They then realized that the CVS stores with locked condoms were overwhelmingly located in minority neighborhoods.
The Save Lives: Free the Condoms campaign was born-- to bring attention to this blatant display of discrimination.
We call on CVS to act responsibly and treat all communities equally by adopting a written policy to unlock all condoms. We won't stop until they do.

"The District of Columbia has more HIV-AIDS cases than any city in the country. Here, a staggering 1 out of 20 people is infected with the virus. And like most American cities with an HIV-AIDS problem, the burden disproportionately falls on the black community.
In fact, more than 80 percent of all new cases in the district are African-Americans."
