The Center for the Humanities at Tufts (CHAT) invites you to a special event on November 13 at noon. Professor Cathy Stanton will be sharing insights from her new book, Food Margins: Lessons from an Unlikely Grocer.

In a food industry shaped by the abundance, cheapness, and convenience that giant corporations can offer, small-­scale ventures struggle to survive, as anthropologist Cathy Stanton discovered when she joined the effort to save a small food co-­op in a former mill town in western Massachusetts. On the margins of the dominant system, Stanton found herself reckoning with its deep racial and class inequities, and learning that making real change requires a fierce commitment to community and a willingness to change herself as well.

Cathy Stanton is an interdisciplinary scholar and practitioner working at the intersection of cultural anthropology and public history. Her published work focuses largely on the uses of history, heritage, and culture in redevelopment projects, particularly in former industrial settings. Her research particularly highlights the presence and contributions of knowledge producers and cultural workers within processes of postindustrial transformation.
