This is a short recording from the Care Fair for women of color with AIDS. Black women are one of the fastest growing population of those contracting AIDS. At the time of this recording, however, much of the research on HIV and AIDS was done on men, so the differences in symptoms and signs had not been discovered. There is an interview with Dayson Dixon, a Black women living with AIDS and she speaks about the lack of services available for those with AIDS and their families. She echoes the concern that there needs to be more research done on how HIV and AIDS affects women and especially Black women. Janet Cleveland, a copy editor at The Atlanta Journal-Constitution speaks as well.
