Let us be clear: There is nothing deficient about Black and Brown bodies.

And yet, those of us who are Black and Brown are more likely to die from medical conditions as different as childbirth and heart disease. There is nothing specific about Black bodies that make us more susceptible to HIV, and yet nearly half the new HIV diagnoses in the United States are among Black people.

The problem is neither medical nor biological. It is sociological. The problem is white supremacy.

Here we go again. Guilty of “whiteness.”

Has anyone ever seen such virulent racism in our lifetimes?

Their demands:

• Repealing laws that criminalize HIV and other infectious diseases.
• Decriminalizing sex work.
• Undoing the harassment and criminalization of immigrant communities.
• Minimizing criminal justice involvement for people who use drugs.
• Reducing mass incarceration.
• Eliminating both mandatory minimums for drug offenses and cash bail.
• Removing legal barriers to accessing public housing and other social benefits for individuals with past drug convictions.

How about the increase in new cases is because homosexuality is more ethnically diverse than it used to be. Also, there are differences in our bodies based on ethnicity - sometimes beneficial, sometimes not so good.

You’re not supposed to discuss those facts.

Why doesn’t the media call them out for conspiracy theories and bigotry?

Curious as to just how many of them we fund with our tax dollars.

Apparently, racism drives people of color to participate in promiscuous sex with strangers. No one is responsible for their own behavior.

Odd that photo looks like how the governor of Michigan treated the people in her state.

Europeans went through 300 years of hemorrhagic fever that repeatedly depopulated large chunks of Europe. Apparently some survivors had a mutation that helps to protect some of their descendants against AIDS.

[Altura Ct.]

FY! WHO. Will whites ever push back or are we going to be manipulated to our destruction??

[BlackAdderess]

Surely these organizations would have kept abreast of developments in the field.

“The problem is neither medical nor biological. It is sociological. The problem is white supremacy.”

TOTAL B.S. It’s lifestyle, pure and simple lifestyle; white, brown, black or anything else it’s just lifestyle. Change your lifestyle and change your life. Blaming “white supremacy” is an excuse, that’s all it is.

[BlackAdderess]

Am I wrong, or does this list of demands look counterproductive to the goal of decreasing the incidence of AIDS.

HIV has never been a health problem, but it is a behavior problem among homosexuals. No one catches AIDS by being in close proximity to someone with AIDS. AIDS is transmitted between two people due to stupid behavior on the part of one or both of those people. Homosexuals can eradicate HIV if they exercised proper behavior.

One problem is medical and biological: sickle-cell anaemia.
