Book Description
Chef Nellie DeLoatch, a Florida native, has created meals that have touched the hearts and filled the bellies of many around the globe. Nellie, who is a cancer survivor, believes that food offers more than physical nourishment and is an avenue to heal and connect individuals, families, and communities. Inspired by her grandmother's soulful style of cooking and dedication to serving local communities, Nellie has worked decades to perfect her multifaceted recipes which have been the main courses at countless tables. As a military wife of twenty-six years, Nellie prepared her delectable dishes for homesick military families in England, catered for civil rights icon Rosa Parks in Alaska, and often serves the homeless around the United States--just to mention a few. Nana, as Nellie is affectionately known to her three grandchildren, finds herself in several roles as she dishes out her sumptuous creations: wife, mother, sister, aunt, cousin, daughter, stepmother, mother-in-law, cook, and counselor. It is the counselor, Nellie believes, who opens up the heart to receive love, which is the essential ingredient for a successful recipe.

Book Description
In the early twentieth century, white-controlled magazines and Black magazines told very different stories about the dynamics of race, sex, and power in the United States. Memory Work: White Ignorance and Black Resistance in Popular Magazines, 1900–1910 examines how popular magazines employed rhetorical strategies to remember, forget, and frame America’s racist past. White-controlled magazines such as the Independent, Outlook, Arena, and McClure’s carried stories of southern nostalgia, union reconciliation, and white purity. Relying on willful ignorance to misremember past experiences of suffering, these texts severed violent histories from present-day policies and often simply remained silent. Meanwhile, in Black magazines such as the Colored American Magazine and the Voice of the Negro, women writers leveraged countermemory. Bringing Black women’s accomplishments into focus, these writers inverted popular white narratives that erased and obscured Black women’s experiences, including those of sexual violence. Mary E. Triece traces how white and Black magazines—often in dialogue with one another—differently engaged memory work to either reinforce or upend white supremacy during a period of both Black advancement and white backlash. Further, the book suggests lines of connection between the construction of public memory in the past to those taking place today across an array of media platforms. Popular debates—whether appearing in early 1900s magazines or on twenty-first-century social media sites—shape a culture’s collective knowledge of what counts as true, important, and worthy of attention.
