Thesis (Ph.D.)--State University of New York at Binghamton, 2011.

Based on twenty-one months of ethnographic fieldwork, this dissertation analyzes knowledge practices around HIV/AIDS in general, investigating specifically the ways urban-based literary arts oriented activism functions as a means to understand and address HIV/AIDS. Often artists do not speak about HIV/AIDS directly, but their work concerns HIV/AIDS intellectually. In focusing on the realities of life in Zimbabwe, and in being willfully probing and critically conscious, artistic expressions provide incisively contextual analysis pertaining to a shifting economic, political, and social milieu. With their audiences, artistically minded activists interrogate what has created and sustained HIV/AIDS and in turn, contest the conditioning of life at individual and societal levels. They do so within physical spaces where they communicate and undertake activism through artistic expressions and through intellectual spaces that assert emotive affect to engage, analyze, and recast the inequities that surround HIV/AIDS.

520 $a Based on twenty-one months of ethnographic fieldwork, this dissertation analyzes knowledge practices around HIV/AIDS in general, investigating specifically the ways urban-based literary arts oriented activism functions as a means to understand and address HIV/AIDS. Often artists do not speak about HIV/AIDS directly, but their work concerns HIV/AIDS intellectually. In focusing on the realities of life in Zimbabwe, and in being willfully probing and critically conscious, artistic expressions provide incisively contextual analysis pertaining to a shifting economic, political, and social milieu. With their audiences, artistically minded activists interrogate what has created and sustained HIV/AIDS and in turn, contest the conditioning of life at individual and societal levels. They do so within physical spaces where they communicate and undertake activism through artistic expressions and through intellectual spaces that assert emotive affect to engage, analyze, and recast the inequities that surround HIV/AIDS.
520 $a I situate HIV/AIDS contextually, and argue a focus on sex is imperative for addressing HIV/AIDS. Productive work around HIV/AIDS attends not only to its biomedical realities but also to the inequities and sexual ideologies that configure lived realities. This is particularly true in Zimbabwe, where state-sanctioned corruption, repression, and violence shape the country's past as well as the present day predicaments. With crisis embedded to the extent that daily life is far from ordinary, arts-oriented activists negotiate an unstable state of affairs. It is impossible to present analysis without attention to this political and economic impasse, which tethers nearly all aspects of life in Harare. In and through this volatile terrain, artistic expressions represent an important avenue for unraveling the ways sex, sexual decision-making, and HIV/AIDS are politically laced issues. As is the case with arts activism overall, a focus on sex also mobilizes lived realities focused analysis as part of the endeavor to artistically develop and present knowledge to understand and address HIV/AIDS.
