1. White Burgers, Black Cash
Race, Rights, and Fast Food
This insightful work delves into the complex interplay between race, economics, and the fast-food industry in America, focusing on how these elements intersect to shape urban landscapes and influence public health. Through a detailed examination of historical and contemporary practices, the book reveals how fast-food chains have strategically targeted African American communities, often to the detriment of their health and economic well-being. It explores the systemic inequalities that have allowed these businesses to thrive in marginalized neighborhoods, highlighting the broader implications for racial and economic justice.
