In UNSTOPPABLE: Straight Women on the AIDS Frontlines, Victoria Noe returns to the subject of her award-winning 2019 book F*g Hags, Divas and Moms: The Legacy of Straight Women in the AIDS Community. But this time, the author focuses on the shifting public health environment of today.

Showcasing candid personal interviews that are complemented by extensive research, UNSTOPPABLE highlights the critical work of straight women to end the epidemic. Also explored are their responses to new challenges such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the second Trump administration’s dismantling of HIV services, research, and treatment. How do they respond to the erasure of their accomplishments? Is the goal of ending the epidemic by 2030 no longer possible?

They are frustrated, exhausted, angry but determined. And they're not giving up.

Because they’re unstoppable.

‘Unstoppable: Straight Women on the AIDS Frontlines’ is an enduring and vital testament to world-changing women, without whom, my life as an HIV+ gay man would be infinitely less bright. ‘Unstoppable’ is a divine act of redemption; a devastating and enchanting honouring of human dignity as well as a treasure-chest of ideas that compels us to keep building healthcare for all. Onwards!’
