Drug laws in the U.S.
thanks Pablo for your post -- the drug laws in the United States also need serious attention. our incredibly large incarceration rate unfairly keeps primarily men of color behind bars with the sad result that for many women of color seeking a partner means that with the humber of available men being lower than women results in a high rate of concurrent relationships -- all increasing HIV rates in communities of color. just one more reason for us to look at how archaic these laws are!
