"I have always admired Dr. Jennifer Clapp’s work and was fortunate to be able to work with her during my master’s and PhD. Dr. Clapp’s ability to see the big picture and identify causal forces that many overlook is always so impressive to me. Dr. Ryan Isakson is also a scholar that I look up to for his ability to skillfully communicate complex dynamics in our food system. Dr. Isakson is also my postdoctoral supervisor, and I should mention that both Dr. Clapp and Dr. Isakson have written a fascinating book on financialization in the food system, entitled Speculative Harvests." - Phoebe Stephens

The food studies landscape is rich with scholars whose work expands our understanding of the world in which we live. Whose work has challenged and guided your own?

"Ashanté M Reese, Black Food Geographies. This is my nomination for what should be included in the canon for food studies. In this book, Reese masterfully demonstrates the ways in which anti-Blackness and white supremacy shape access to food and inaccess to food. Very helpfully, talks about geographies of self-reliance and the ways in which people are not determined necessarily by their spatial reality, but ways in which they kind of interact with that reality in ways that inform hope that we can more towards more just and more equitable food systems. Black Food Geographies, Ashanté M Reese"

Chelsea Klinke and Gertrude Korkor Samar share the food studies scholars that have influenced them:

"The ways in which we have come to know, be, and connect has been influenced by three major scholars who have written extensively in the food studies circles . . . "
