Black Hunger - Food and the Politics of US Identity (Hardcover, New)

Black Hunger looks at how the association of African American women with food has operated in the production creation of twentieth-century US identity. Taking as her focus debates over the "authenticity" of soul food during the tumultuous era of the late 1960s and early 1970s, Doris Witt locates complex practices of African American intraracial identification and "othering" in relation to an ongoing narrative of white fascination with black culture.
