A diverse constellation of activists, including medical professionals, black gay intellectuals, hairdressers, church pastors, Nation of Islam leaders, and recovering drug users, pursued a wide array of grassroots approaches in hopes of slowing the spread of the disease in black communities.

Drawing on extensive archival research from around the country along with original oral histories, To make the wounded whole documents the diverse, creative, and at times global work of African American activists in the decades-long [fight] against HIV/AIDS"--
