Queer citizenship and the stigma of banned blood -- Articulating abjection : negating citizenships of sacrifice and reproduction -- AIDS memory, medicinal prudence, and the construction of social denial -- Diseased citizenship and the rhetoric of scientific deliberation -- Passing, protesting, and the arts of resistance : infiltrating the ritual space of blood donation -- A radical tolerance of experimentation.
In Banning Queer Blood, Jeffrey Bennett frames blood donation as a performance of civic identity closely linked to the meaning of citizenship. However, with the advent of AIDS came the notion of blood donation as a potentially dangerous process. Bennett argues that the Food and Drug Administration, by employing images that specifically depict gay men as contagious, has categorized gay men as a menace to the nation. The FDA's ban on blood donation by gay men remains in effect and serves to propagate the social misconceptions about gay men that circulate within both the straight and gay communit.
