Dominique Jackson, Star of "Pose" on FX, Lends Her Celebrity to Support United We Rise

BOSTON - EntSun -- United We Rise (UWR) announces today the support of Dominique Jackson - a Model, Actress, Author, and one of the stars of POSE on FX. Ms. Jackson is using her influence and celebrity to raise awareness of UWR's launch of a pioneering collaboration working to end the HIV epidemic. UWR is led by three organizations – Multicultural AIDS Coalition (MAC), National Black Gay Men's Advocacy Coalition (NBGMAC), and National Black Women's HIV/AIDS Network (the Network).

"We are thrilled to have Dominique's support of our effort to build a Black-led initiative that ends HIV. Her voice amplifies the call for intersectional strategies to erase HIV and other health inequities that Black communities experience," states Gary Daffin, speaking on behalf of the three convening UWR organizations. "Dismantling racism, which permeates Black health, is an important part of that work."

Best known for her performance in the lead role of "Elektra" on the critically acclaimed series, POSE, which airs on FX, Ms. Jackson is also the author of an autobiography, "The Transexual From Tobago." She has appeared in the reality TV model/fashion show, STRUT, on the Oxygen Network, and can next be seen in AMERICAN GODS on Starz and in the feature film, CHICK FIGHT, opposite Malin Akerman, Bella Thorne, and Fortune Feimster.
