Race and Retail

Consumption across the Color Line

Edited by Mia Bay and Ann Fabian

Using an interdisciplinary approach, the original essays collected here explore selling and buying practices of nonwhite populations around the world and the barriers that shape these habits, such as racial discrimination, food deserts, and gentrification.
