Educating, demystifying, destigmatising’
Open AccessWhitney Sewell, Michael Terry et al.ARTICLECulture Health & Sexuality2025
Black cisgender women in the USA are disproportionately affected by HIV but remain underrepresented in HIV-related pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) messaging. Despite PrEP's efficacy in preventing HIV, uptake among Black cisgender in the USA women remains low. This qualitative study explored how PrEP messaging can better resonate with Black women's interests and needs by focusing on their experiences and preferences. We conducted semi-structured i…
Psychosocial Determinants of Antiretroviral Treatment Adherence among Black Mothers with HIV
Open AccessLaurenia Mangum, Darren L Whitfield et al.ARTICLEAffilia2025Referências: 9
Black mothers with HIV (BMWH) face treatment adherence (TA) challenges, shaped by gendered anti-Black racism, oppression, and structural inequalities, which hinder healthcare access, support, and well-being. Compounded by mothering responsibilities, understanding the determinants of TA is critical to addressing their unmet needs. We utilized an explanatory cross-sectional, multiphase sampling survey design. Twenty-five BMWH completed a 30-min onl…
Health care is the new battlefront for anti-DEI attacks
Open AccessOni J Blackstock, Jessica Isom et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2024
Health care is the new battlefront for anti-diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) attacks. It reflects a broadening of the wave of state-level anti-DEI in higher education legislation that has surged through the country with 65 anti-DEI bills introduced since 2023, eight of which have become law These anti-DEI efforts are also tightly linked to the 2022 US Supreme Court reversal of Roe v. Wade and the anti-trans and anti-abortion legislation tha…
Social and structural factors associated with interest in HIV preexposure prophylaxis among Black women in the United States
Whitney Sewell, Sarah K Calabrese et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2024
In a nationwide sample of cisgender Black women in the US, we assessed the associations between social and structural factors and interest in using HIV preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP). Among 315 respondents, 62.2% were interested in PrEP if it were provided for free. Positive social norms surrounding PrEP, including injunctive norms (perceived social acceptability of PrEP use) and descriptive norms (perceived commonality of PrEP use), were positiv…

This Viewpoint discusses the importance of proactively discussing preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) with Black cisgender women
Past Is Prologue
Open AccessAlang, Chelsey R Carter et al.ARTICLEHealth Equity2023
Colonialism underlies the commodification of health care in the United States and continues to harm well-being among Black Americans. We present four recommendations for addressing its health consequences: (1) Investments in epigenetic research to improve our understanding of how systemic oppression becomes biology. (2) Centering Black experiences and knowledge traditions in education, practice, and policy. (3) Support for Black scholars, trainee…

Health crises have a disproportionate impact on communities that are marginalized by systems of oppression such as racism and capitalism. Benefits of advances such as in the prevention and treatment of HIV disease are unequally distributed. Intersecting factors including poverty, homophobia, homelessness, racism, and mass incarceration expose marginalized populations to greater risks while limiting access to resources that buffer these risks.

Racial and ethnic differences in women’s HIV risk and attitudes towards pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) in the context of the substance use, violence, and depression syndemic
Tiara C Willie, T Kershaw et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2021
Women with syndemic conditions, i.e., two or more co-occurring epidemics, are at elevated risk for HIV acquisition and are therefore prime candidates for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). However, PrEP uptake remains low among women, especially among Black and Hispanic women. This study examined associations of syndemic conditions with PrEP attitudes and HIV risk among women, and the moderating effect of race and ethnicity. In 2017, 271 non-Hispan…
Serving the People Body and Soul”—Centering Black Communities to Achieve Health Justice
Open AccessUché Blackstock, Uché A Blackstock et al.ARTICLEJAMA Health Forum2021
Eight months into a devastating once-in-a-century pandemic, we have borne witness to an inordinate degree of human suffering, particularly among Black people in the US, who have been disproportionately affected by the federal government's inadequate and incompetent response to the novel coronavirus. The pandemic has shone a much-needed spotlight on persistent racialized health inequities in the US at the same time that the nation reckons with rac…

Pre-exposure prophylaxis prescribing and retention in care among heterosexual women at a community-based comprehensive sexual health clinic
Oni J Blackstock, Viraj V Patel et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2017
In the United States, heterosexual women account for 20% of new HIV infections. As a user-controlled HIV prevention method, pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) has substantial potential to reduce new infections among women. However, among women, PrEP is vastly underutilized. To guide efforts to increase women-at-risk's PrEP use, we sought to describe the characteristics of women prescribed PrEP as well as their retention in PrEP care. We conducted a …

Internet-based HIV interventions are increasingly common, although little focus has been on HIV-positive women. To understand the feasibility of using the Internet to deliver behavioral interventions to HIV-positive women, we sought to describe patterns of Internet use for general and health-related purposes and to explore differences between Internet-using and non-using women. From February 2014 to April 2014, 103 women were recruited at six com…
The Association Between Hiv Status and Homelessness Among Veterans in Care
Open AccessToorjo Ghose, Adam J Gordon et al.ARTICLEJournal of Community Psychology2015Referências: 25
Veterans seeking care in the Department of Veterans Affairs Health Care System (VA) are more vulnerable to HIV infection and homelessness. However, there is little scholarship on the association between serostatus and homelessness among VA veterans. We examined this association in the Veterans Aging Cohort Study, a sample of 6,819 HIV-positive and HIV-negative veterans attending 8 VAs across the country. We utilized logistic models regressing she…

Gender and the Use of Veterans Health Administration Homeless Services Programs Among Iraq/Afghanistan Veterans
Oni J Blackstock, Sally G Haskell et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2012Referências: 23
BACKGROUND: Female Veterans comprise 12% of Operation Enduring Freedom/Operation Iraqi Freedom (OEF/OIF) Veterans, the largest proportion of women to serve of any prior cohort. We sought to determine the sex-specific risk of using a Veterans Health Administration (VHA) homeless program among OEF/OIF Veterans and to identify factors associated with increased risk of program use for women compared with men. METHODS: We included OEF/OIF Veterans wit…
