Hot chicken is on the list of "must-try" Southern foods in
countless publications and websites. Restaurants in New York,
Detroit, Cambridge, and even Australia advertise that they fry
their chicken 'Nashville-style.' More than twelve thousand people
showed up for the 2014 Fourth of July Music City Hot Chicken
Festival. The James Beard Foundation recently gave Prince's Chicken
Shack an American Classic Award for inventing the dish. But for
almost seventy years, hot chicken was made and sold primarily in
Nashville's black neighborhoods-and the story of hot chicken says
something powerful about race relations in Nashville, especially as
the city tries to figure out what it will be in the future. Hot,
Hot Chicken recounts the history of Nashville's black communities
through the story of its hot chicken scene from the Civil War, when
Nashville became a segregated city, through the tornado that ripped
through North Nashville in March 2020.
