Black Food Matters
by Hanna Garth (editor), Ashanté M. Reese (editor)
Description
This incisive collection examines how food shapes—and is shaped by—Black life, tracing the intersections of race, power, labor, health, land, and belonging. Bringing together essays by scholars and community voices, it explores the enduring effects of anti-Blackness alongside the creativity, resilience, and political possibilities found in Black foodways. From everyday acts of nourishment to broader struggles for food justice and sovereignty, the book challenges conventional ideas about who controls food systems and whose knowledge matters. Thoughtful and interdisciplinary, it offers a compelling framework for understanding food as both a site of inequality and a resource for collective transformation.
