Ill Erotics: Black Jamaican Women and Self-Making in Times of HIV / AIDS - Reproductive Justice: A New Vision for the 21st Century
Jallicia Jolly
The convergence of the fourth decade of the HIV/AIDS pandemic, the COVID-19 outbreak, and landmark struggles for reproductive justice has illuminated interconnected health inequities faced by Black women globally. The first ethnography to focus on Black girls and women living with HIV in the Anglophone Caribbean, Ill Erotics shows how women’s everyday lives contrast with widely circulated 'End of AIDS' crisis narratives that prioritize individualism, self-help, and self-sufficiency. This book chronicles the politics of HIV care and self-making in young Black women’s everyday experiences with illness, reproductive violence, and inequality as they navigate the contradictory interventions of the state, biomedicine, humanitarianism, and HIV/AIDS organizations.
Jolly makes the compelling argument that young women’s grassroots practice of care enables a black feminist infrastructure that centers interdependence, affective connections, and political mobilization while repurposing discourses of shame, isolation, and contagion as ill erotics.
