It's a book I was excited to talk to about with others and a book I'm excited to give to other people.
And there's so many things to learn from it.
You introduce a process called distributed definition building.
How might you describe that to someone who's never heard the term before?
That is highly insightful.
I'm thinking about how you also framed the larger issue of food distribution and why this matters.
There's elements of justice, nutrition, who the system was meant for and who it wasn't meant for.
Can you explain that a little bit just to kind of understand why this local aspect really does matter and make a difference?
You also connect this really well to other academic scholarship.
You bring up Rhonda McGee and you discuss this idea of vulnerability.
And I can see that in your writing, how you situate yourself of who you are and how you fit into it.
And there's one particular quote, viewing vulnerability as a gift brings to mind so many of the traits and states of being that mainstream white supremacy culture shuns.
Can you talk about that?
quote and maybe how it fits into the work and how people can view this book.
It is evident the work that you put into it.
I love the tidbits about having to revise because seven years is a really long time.
And you talk about other key issues like climate change and how we think about them.
And at the heart of it is this idea of tipping points.
Yeah.
And this contagious type of writing, what kind of general advice do you have to make more scholarship that people get excited about?
