BREAST CANCER: ISSUES AND RESOURCES
In Lesbian and Gay Studies Newsletter (Fall, 1995)

In this review of an art exhibition about breast cancer, Sedgwick critiques the premise that “artists – all presumed healthy – create works of art that would, somehow, give a ‘voice’ to…women – all presumed voiceless – struggling with the disease.” She also objects to the lack of representation of lesbians in both the exhibition and in cancer research.
