Around the Dinner Table: The Visual Culture & Art of African Diaspora Foodways

This course explores the intersections between foodways (defined as the cultural, social and economic practices relating to food) and the visual culture/art history of the African Diaspora. The focus is on the African American and African Diasporic engagements with food that have shaped Black culture from the 19th century to the present. Particular attention is paid to scholarship that illustrates the importance of images and artistic practice within this discourse on food.
