Indian Times: Native Americans rank 3rd in nation for contracting HIV/AIDS (Mar 31, 2012)
This week on Indian Times we speak with Dr Daniel Molina, assistant medical director of the Oklahoma City Indian Health Clinic. March 20th was National Native HIV/AIDS Awareness Day.  What was once considered a death sentence nowadays people feel we are controlling and dealing with HIV/AIDS, but this may not be the case for native peoples in their small communities. Dr. Molina talks about the continuing stigma for native homosexuals.
