– FreeReading: Castiglia & Reed “If Memory Serves” Without memory there can be no future. “If Memory Serves: Gay Men, AIDS, and the Promise of the Queer Past” challenges the way authorities in government and academe instructed gay men to forget the sexual cultures of the 1970s during the decades following the advent of AIDS. Challenging assumptions behind first-wave queer theory, authors Christopher Castiglia and Christopher Reed turn to a rich textual and visual archive to explore more positive takes on gay memory.
