亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)是一个对全球妇女产生深远影响的重大公共卫生问题。尽管它涉及种族、社会经济地位、年龄、地理位置和性取向，但那些饱受贫困困扰的社区经历了不成比例的比率。贫困为个人、家庭和社区创造了独特的脆弱环境，发达国家和发展中国家的黑人社区都经历了不成比例的贫困。贫困对黑人社区的影响是重大的和普遍的，有着深厚的历史根源。艾滋病毒/艾滋病和贫穷都对妇女的身心健康和福祉产生深远影响。生活在经历贫困和IPV的交叉点上的黑人妇女处于特别不利的地位。本文将探讨贫困对美国和非洲大陆黑人妇女遭受暴力的影响，并呼吁采取必要的结构性、社区和个人一级的干预措施，以解决这一普遍存在的关切。
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a major public health concern that has profound impacts on women across the globe. Though it cuts across race, socioeconomic status, age, geography and sexual orientation, those communities plagued by poverty experience disproportionate rates. Poverty creates unique circumstances of vulnerability for individuals, families, and communities and is disproportionately experienced by Black communities in both developed and developing countries. The impact of poverty on Black communities is significant and pervasive, with deep historical roots. Both IPV and poverty have profound effects on women's physical and psychosocial health and well-being. Black women who live at the intersection of experiencing poverty and IPV are in an especially disadvantaged position. This paper will explore the impact of poverty on Black women's experiences of violence in the United States and on the African continent and present a call to action for necessary structural, community and individual level intervention to address this pervasive concern.
