The Racialization of Sexuality: The Queer Case of Jeffrey Dahmer

In this article I read media and subcultural representations of Jeffrey Dahmer, the white male U.S. serial killer who gained notoriety in the late 1980s for having sex with and then murdering and dismembering men of color in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. My aim is to show the extent to which the degree of Dahmer\u27s homosexualization in a particular representation determines Dahmer\u27 s thinking and actions in the sphere of race, and to suggest how spiraling efforts to separate race from sexuality in the Dahmer case only further intricate the two analytic axes.https://digitalcommons.chapman.edu/english_books/1018/thumbnail.jp
