Hello, we are two librarians interested in foodways. Because food and foodways are multifaceted, we will be reading and listening to material from many disciplines, such as the history and anthropology of food, environmentalism, food justice, artistic expression, sociology and more.
We will host discussions every few months and each meeting will focus on a different book. We will also share reading and listening material for additional understanding and enrichment of foodways.
Please join us on Wednesday, May 31 from 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM over Zoom as we discuss Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly by Anthony Bourdain.
Whether you are reading this book for the first time or revisiting it, we will be looking at Bourdain's memoir through a different lens. Bourdain wrote this memoir before #METOO and before racism in the food industry was widely acknowledged by the public. How does his memoir stand up to the test of time? Let's discuss.
Books can be placed on hold and picked up at your local branch through our catalog: https://bpl.bibliocommons.com/...
