Factors associated with PrEP use in a community sample of African American men who have sex with men (MSM) and transgender women (TGW) in the United States Midwest
Black sexual minority men who have sex with men (MSM) in the United States are at disparate risk for contracting HIV infection, but pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) use is suboptimal. Social network methods were used to recruit a community sample of racial minority MSM and transgender women (TGW) in two Midwestern US cities. 250 PrEP-eligible (HIV-negative) participants completed measures assessing current and intended PrEP use; demographic charac…
Invasion, Replacement and Colonial Anxiety in The War of the Worlds
British novelist Herbert George Wells’ 1897 science-fiction novel The War of the Worlds is a story about an invasion of the planet Earth by extraterrestrial beings. The novel is Wells’ reaction to his firsthand witnessing of the horrors of British colonialism. Seeing what travesties humans were capable of inflicting on other humans, the story is a projection of colonial anxiety. On 30 October 1938, American theatre director and filmmaker Orson We…

Reenvisioning Pay for Play
California recently passed the Fair Pay to Play Act, allowing college athletes to be paid for endorsements, making income off of their likeness. While many people are heralding this bill, we propose that sports revenue could be used to decrease the racial education gap in the local communities that are often preyed upon by elite sports programs
Karaoke Instagram
In this study, I compare and contrast online and offline performances of karaoke and ask, what are the material phenomena associated with the two practices? How are they different and/or the same? What does this tell us about the connection between performance and technology, especially in relation to amateur singing and its mediatized forms? Following this mode of enquiry, I find that examples of online and offline karaoke provide useful insight…
Social network intervention to increase pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) awareness, interest, and use among African American men who have sex with men
In the U.S., HIV incidence is highest among Black men who have sex with men (MSM) but PrEP uptake is low, in part due to lack of normative support for using PrEP. This research pilot tested a social network-level intervention designed to increase PrEP use willingness, interest, and peer supports among Black MSM in Milwaukee. Five community social networks (n = 40 participants) of racial minority MSM were assessed at baseline with measures of PrEP…
The History and Conceptual Elements of Critical Race Theory
While the roots of the scholarship of critical race theory (CRT) can be traced to earlier writings, the first meeting occurred in the summer of 1989 in Madison, Wisconsin. Twenty-three legal scholars of color met for a weeklong workshop (Crenshaw, 2011).1 As with any intellectual movement, CRT was born out of the confluence of historical developments of the time and the need to respond to those developments. Thus, in order to understand the schol…
Programmes, resources, and needs of HIV-prevention nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) in Africa, Central/Eastern Europe and Central Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean
This study assessed the programmes, resources, and needs of HIV-prevention nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) in 75 countries in Africa, Central/Eastern Europe and Central Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean. Multiple databases and expert recommendations were used to identify one major HIV-prevention NGO in the capital or a large city in each country, and in-depth interviews were conducted with each NGO Director. Most NGOs are carrying out th…
HIV prevention programs of nongovernmental organizations in Latin America and the Caribbean
