@johngreensbluesky.bsky.social … I’m set to read your book this weekend.
Any exploration of the link between bacon, Black bodies, and tuberculosis?
Dr. John Holstein said, “You can at once distinguish a bacon-fed negro” by his “sleek appearance” and lack of tuberculosis.

I delivered my book, #AmericanBacon, today to @ugapress.bsky.social.
I know it’s not the last time I’ll see it with copy edits and then page proofs, but wow, what a feeling of excitement and fear.
After five years, two rounds of peer review, 110,770 words in 1,694 paragraphs, I guess that’s that.
I’m interested in phenomena when people play roles for public consumption, the spectacularizarion of race, class, gender, i.e minstrelsy and masquerade.
My next book, #BaconBook #AmericanBacon explores similar themes!
