Anotace knihy

An in depth interview study that seeks to §understand how low income, HIV positive women of §Nakuru, Kenya, perceive, and practice HIV/AIDS §prevention, and male condom use negotiation. §Focusing on the sample population s cultural, §geographic,economic, and political status, within §the local and global contexts of HIV/AIDS control §policy, and population politics, the study §identifies multiple culture-dependent strategies §that HIV positive women of Nakuru adopt, as a form §of personal and social agency in response to these §challenges. A set of feminist approaches to the §intersection of gender,race, sexuality, and §globalization are applied. Critical Race Feminism §and African Feminist Thought help to locate, §understand and position Nakuru women s lives and §limitations. Through their narratives, complex §heterosexual marriages and relationship types are §identified. A slum life of poverty, hunger, lack of §support from government, kinship, and international §organizations, inaccessibility to reproductive §health services, and gender powerlessness, become §major factors constraining successful HIV/AIDS §prevention practices.
