February 6, 2012 – More than 60 Black celebrities have united with Greater Than AIDS to bring attention to the severe and disproportionate epidemic facing Black Americans and reduce the stigma surrounding the disease. Black Americans account for half of the approximately 1.1 million people living with HIV/AIDS in this country today – and 44 percent of new infections – while representing just 12 percent of the population.  Blacks are also more likely to die of AIDS as compared to other racial and ethnic groups.
