The Matter We Call Food (with Dr. Kyla Wazana Tompkins)
from Critical Literary Consumption · host Anna Nguyen
Dr. Kyla Wazana Tompkins (Pomona College) and I discuss her monograph, Racial Indigestion: Eating Bodies in the 19th Century, and explore the ongoing binaries of exploring food as a topic of academic investigation: subject/object, personal/disciplinary; humanities/sciences, and materialism/humanism. She expresses the possibilities of new materialism in her second book, which continues to look at “the matter we often call food”.
