520 2  "Scholars of US and transatlantic slavery have largely 
       ignored or dismissed accusations that Black Americans were
       cannibalized. Vincent Woodard takes the enslaved person's 
       claims of human consumption seriously, focusing on both 
       the literal starvation of the slave and the tropes of 
       cannibalism on the part of the slaveholder, and further 
       draws attention to the ways in which Blacks experienced 
       their consumption as a fundamentally homoerotic 
       occurrence. The Delectable Negro explores these 
       connections between homoeroticism, cannibalism, and 
       cultures of consumption in the context of American 
       literature and US slave culture. Utilizing many staples of
       African American literature and culture, such as the slave
       narratives of Olaudah Equiano, Harriet Jacobs, and 
       Frederick Douglass, as well as other less circulated 
       materials like James L. Smith's slave narrative, runaway 
       slave advertisements, and numerous articles from Black 
       newspapers published in the nineteenth century, Woodard 
       traces the racial assumptions, political aspirations, 
       gender codes, and philosophical frameworks that dictated 
       both European and white American arousal towards Black 
       males and hunger for Black male flesh. Woodard uses these 
       texts to unpack how slaves struggled not only against 
       social consumption, but also against endemic mechanisms of
       starvation and hunger designed to break them. He concludes
       with an examination of the controversial chain gang oral 
       sex scene in Toni Morrison's Beloved, suggesting that even
       at the end of the twentieth and beginning of the twenty-
       first century, we are still at a loss for language with 
       which to describe Black male hunger within a plantation 
       culture of consumption"--|cProvided by publisher.
