HIV isn’t over — it’s just been ignored. Black women account for a disproportionate number of new cases, the South is ground zero, and the stigma is still killing us. Roland Martin, Dr. Toyin Nwafor, Raheem DeVaughn, and frontline organizers break the silence on a public health crisis America refuses to face.
 
In response to this staggering trend, Gilead Sciences has launched the Setting the P.A.C.E. initiative. The Prevention, Arts and Advocacy, Community, and Education program is a three-year, $12.6 million commitment aimed at expanding HIV prevention efforts in underserved communities.
 
Dr. Toyin Nwafor, Executive Director of Gilead U.S. HIV Medical Affairs, and Raheem DeVaughn, an award-winning musician and partner in the Gilead Setting the P.A.C.E. initiative.
 
🔥 Undiagnosed. Untreated. Unheard. 
🔥 Black women make up 53% of new HIV cases among women — but get the least attention 
🔥 “Stigma is still killing us.” — Dr. Toyin Nwafor 
🔥 The South is ground zero for new HIV diagnoses — and it’s not getting better 
🔥 Raheem DeVaughn joins to amplify awareness, justice, and real community healing

7.24.2025 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: TX Dems vs GOP Redistricting, Maxwell DOJ Talk, Oak Bluffs Legacy, Birthright Ruling & Karen Chaos
 
Texas Democrats are unlikely to have the votes to stop the GOP-led redistricting effort, which is up for debate tomorrow. 
 
Convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell sat down with Trump's DOJ to discuss what she knows about her former boyfriend, Jeffrey Epstein, and his associates. 
 
For over a century, Black families, HBCU alums, artists, and change-makers have spent summers in Oak Bluffs, building a legacy on the shores of Martha's Vineyard. We'll talk with a Black-owned business founder about why some people don't question the high prices of designer collections, but challenge the value of his brand.
 
A federal appeals court rules that Trump's executive order aimed at ending birthright citizenship is unconstitutional.
 
And yes, these Karens are out of control -- we've got more wild footage to show you.
