Hungry Roots : How Food Communicates Appalachia's Search for Resilience Hardback
by Ashli Quesinberry Stokes, Wendy Atkins-Sayre
Hardback
Description
A journey through Southern Appalachia to explore the complex messages food communicates about the regionDepictions of Appalachian food culture and practices often romanticize people in the region as good, simple, and, often, white.
These stereotypes are harmful to the actual people they are meant to describe as well as to those they exclude.
In Hungry Roots: How Food Communicates Appalachia's Search for Resilience, Ashli Quesinberry Stokes and Wendy Atkins-Sayre tell a more complicated story.
The authors embark on a cultural tour through food and drinking establishments to investigate regional resilience in and through the plurality of traditions and communities that form the foodways of Southern Appalachia.
