Ruin Their Crops on the Ground: The Politics of Food in the United States, from the Trail of Tears to School Lunch

Andrea Freeman

2.0

informative slow-paced

I was unimpressed by the generic manner in which the content was presented. The book lacked specific narratives from affected communities or even any relevant storytelling on how Black and Indigenous people cope with food apartheid. It read like a PWI textbook. The chapter on the dairy industry was enlightening, but the only valuable portion of the book.
