First thing to debunk here is that HIV/AIDS is not a real disease.

Yes it is.

You can live a long life with HIV. It is in your system however. It is a real disease and it is there. One of the reasons it became such a problem within some groups is because those groups were rampant with rumours that HIV/AIDS was not real and that it was a conspiracy. One in particular was the gay community. Many didn't believe it was real because of people spreading lies about it. That needs to stop.

The second thing is that HIV/AIDS is a very serious problem in the black community and spreading misinformation about it such as it is not a real disease does no one any good. The reason it was a problem for black women is because many chose to believe it was a disease that only existed in white populations and more specifically gay white male populations. This was not true of course. The HIV/AIDS rate was always high in blacks. At the lowest it was 25% which was much higher than their population percentage. The denial was strong within their community however. They do not talk about promiscuity and therefore it is not happening. As long as they pretend it to be ok it is. It is messed up but their views are somewhat tribal and archaic despite living in a modern culture. Just as black men claim they are not gay even if they have sex with men and some even have long term gay relationships. They still refuse to call themselves gay.

The disease is much more common in blacks and it is a real problem brought on by promiscuous behavior and living in denial. Blacks need to face it. They could probably fix much of the problems if they took a different approach. It is not the problem of white people and frankly blacks are not going to listen to white people on the subject anyway. If they did then their population would not have such a problem like they do today.
