How the NBWHP Actions During the HIV/AIDS Epidemic Are Reminiscent of Previous Work
The NBWHP continued to apply its overarching political, cultural, and holistic approach to health and wellness to how they understand the AIDS epidemic among Black women. Similar to previous work the NBWHP's approach was situated at the intersection of race and gender. The organization's work around HIV/AIDS included coverage of the HIV/AIDs epidemic, including a special issue dedicated to the epidemic, in the NWBHP's magazine Vital Signs, and a chapter on HIV/AIDS in the health self-help book Body and Soul: The Black Women's Guide to Physical Health and Emotional Wellbeing. The organization also had panels, speeches, and workshops at NBWHP annual conferences, a special conference on HIV/AIDS, and the NBWHP developed culturally specific HIV/AIDS programming.
