Book Description
HIV-related stigma incorporates stigmas associated with the illness as well as stigmas associated with groups that have been linked with HIV including gay and bisexual men, sex workers, and intravenous drug users. HIV-related stigma has led to the isolation of many groups based on their association with HIV/AIDS. It has been suggested that mode of transmission, knowledge of HIV, interaction with HIV positive individuals, and attitudes towards HIV influence perceptions of those infected.

African American Women and HIV/AIDS
Author: Dorie J. Gilbert
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 0313039070
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 286
Book Description
AIDS is the second-leading cause of death among African American women between the ages of 18 and 44. African American women constitute 63% of all cases of AIDS among women in the United States. This volume brings together the collective wisdom of scholars, researchers, and social work professionals dealing with these concerns. Focusing attention on the primary population of women impacted by AIDS, this book presents culturally sensitive responses that meet the specific needs of African American women. An historical and current overview of the alarming HIV infection rate among African Americans, in particular women, introduces the crisis. Subsequent chapters highlight HIV/AIDS prevention and intervention strategies that are successfully impacting the African American population. Guided by a feminist perspective and grounded in social construction theory, social work theory, and social work practice, this volume privileges the voice of African American women, the group that is the most disenfranchised—and least accurately represented—in AIDS-related research and writing. This essential guide sheds light on a calamity too often overlooked, making it especially valuable for scholars, students, researchers, and practitioners involved with HIV/AIDS issues in the African American community, and with women's and black studies.
