Abstract

This paper focuses on how white middle-class Nashvillians adapt hot chicken as a local symbol and explores how ‘white trash’ hot chicken parties make it possible to use food to reclaim public space and to play with stigma in a way that is empowering for some, while simultaneously contributing to a wider culture of ‘hegemonic whiteness’.
