Abstract

Remediating racial/ethnic HIV inequities necessitates addressing HIV-related stigma. Arts- and media-based approaches demonstrate potential for effective knowledge translation and HIV-related stigma reduction. This study employs 5 monologues portraying lived experiences of older African Americans living with HIV to do this. Monologues were developed on the basis of qualitative research, actors performed them for live and online audiences, and surveys were distributed to gauge their potential for raising awareness about HIV-related stressors, reducing HIV-related stigma, and entertainment value. Monologues may also foster HIV testing. More scholarship should integrate arts-based knowledge translation with HIV education. Future efforts should focus on scaling this approach.
