Digesting Food Studies (the CFS podcast)—Episode 110: Feminist Food Studies

Feminist studies and food studies have a fascinating history of difference, alignment, and emergence. This episode covers some of that span, from a laborious recipe for baked rice pudding (without eggs…!) to a themed issue of Canadian Food Studies (Vol. 5 No. 1) that is dedicated to feminist food studies (https://doi.org/10.15353/cfs-rcea.v5i1). Lots of voices this week, including Jennifer Brady, Barbara Parker, Elaine Power, Liz Lovell, Steph Chartrand, and of course the inimitable Alexia Moyer.

HOW WE SEE OTHER PEOPLE
When We Choose To See Others Beyond Class Structures

Too often, we see people through the lens of class, wealth, or status.
But when we shift perspective, we discover something deeper — shared humanity.

I wrote about my own experience of this shift and what it taught me.

Why We Trust People Who Grew Up with Less | Geekoo

People instinctively trust those who grew up with less, according to new research. Our trust seems tied not to wealth, but to the perceived morality of humble beginnings.

Adapting to their opaque, biased, and energetically #unsustainable tools is the trap they're selling us as something unappealable. Soon, #AI tools will have unmarked prices, and access to global production will be strongly tied to #socialclass ⚡️
