AIDS and the Distribution of Crises engages with the AIDS pandemic
as a network of varied historical, overlapping, and ongoing crises
born of global capitalism and colonial, racialized, gendered, and
sexual violence. Drawing on their investments in activism, media,
anticolonialism, feminism, and queer and trans of color critiques,
the scholars, activists, and artists in this volume outline how the
neoliberal logic of "crisis" structures how AIDS is aesthetically,
institutionally, and politically reproduced and experienced. Among
other topics, the authors examine the writing of the history of
AIDS; settler colonial narratives and laws impacting risk in
Indigenous communities; the early internet regulation of both
content and online AIDS activism; the Black gendered and sexual
politics of pleasure, desire, and (in)visibility; and how
persistent attention to white men has shaped AIDS as intrinsic to
multiple, unremarkable crises among people of color and in the
Global South. Contributors. Cecilia Aldarondo, Pablo Alvarez,
