It used to be known as a "gay, white man's disease"...but 30 years later, the fastest growing population living with, or being infected with HIV/AIDS is African American women! Black women account for 77% of all women in Virginia living with HIV....and are 21 times more likely to be diagnosed with the disease. So what's going on with African American women when it comes to HIV/AIDS? On the next Another View we'll hear from experts Alycia Dickens, Family Nurse Practitioner and HIV Specialist with EVMS, Ruby Jones, who is living with HIV, and Dr. Zina McGee, Sociology Professor from Hampton University. Plus we'll show you how one school system is incorporating physical exercise into classes traditionally designed to exercise the mind.
