The Golden Arches in Black America

Marcia Chatelain

Franchise delves into the relationship between black communities and America's biggest fast-food chain. From the first McDonald's drive-in to the franchise in Ferguson, Missouri, this book explores how fast food serves as a source of both power and despair for African Americans. With insightful analysis, the author argues that fast food has become a crucial battleground in the fight for racial justice.

@DevitaDavison @gastropoda I learned about this from @DrMChatelain’s marvelous book FRANCHISE! I’ve been recommending it to everyone I possibly can, especially white food writers      source
