In the 1960s, when the question "Guess who's coming to dinner?" was posed, the answer often meant that a white family had to make way for an African-American in-law. In this new millennium, the new face at the dinner table may be one of any number of races, ethnicities, and religions. Filled with funny and poignant stories, "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?" is sure to be of interest to anyone seeking a better understanding of religious, ethnic, or racial differences.

Describes and analyzes the phenomenon of multicultural political conservatism in the US. Arguing that conservative politics are no longer the exclusive domain of white, wealthy males, but instead a collection of people from all races, ethnicities, gender and sexualities, Dillard (history, politics, New York U.) explores what this new influx of ideas means for the conservative movement, its members and the country as a whole. Particular attention is paid to the marginalization of minority conservatives, who are welcomed only with hesitation by the conservative movement, and shunned, without hesitation, as "sell-outs" by their own ethnic, racial or sexual groups.

"...could not be more of the moment." (New York Times Book Review) "If you, like many, marveled that George W. Bush not only did but could put together a cabinet and staff that was racially diverse as well as fiscally and morally conservative, here's a book you'll want to read." (Ms. magazine)

Guess Who's Coming to Dinner examines how specific types of food were prepared and eaten during feasting rituals in prehistoric Europe and the Near East. Such rituals allowed people to build and maintain their power and prestige and to maintain or contest the status quo. At the same time, they also contributed to the inner cohesion and sense of community of a group. When eating and drinking together, people share thoughts and beliefs and perceive the world and human relationships in a certain way. The twelve contributions to this book reflect the main theoretical and methodological issues related to the study of food and feasting in prehistoric Europe and the Near East. The book is introduced by Ferrán Adrià, considered to be the world's greatest chef. Famed for his "molecular gastronomy", he invented the technique of reducing foods to their essence and then changing how they are presented, for example in the form of foam. In 2010, he was named Best Chef of the Decade by the prestigious Restaurant magazine.

From the breakout author of There Are More Beautiful Things Than Beyoncé comes a profound and deceptively funny exploration of Black American womanhood. "Morgan Parker's latest collection is a riveting testimony to everyday blackness . . . It is wry and atmospheric, an epic work of aural pleasures and personifications that demands to be read—both as an account of a private life and as searing political protest." —TIME Magazine A Most Anticipated Book of 2019 at Vogue, O: the Oprah Magazine, NYLON, BuzzFeed, Publishers Weekly, and more. Magical Negro is an archive of black everydayness, a catalog of contemporary folk heroes, an ethnography of ancestral grief, and an inventory of figureheads, idioms, and customs. These American poems are both elegy and jive, joke and declaration, songs of congregation and self-conception. They connect themes of loneliness, displacement, grief, ancestral trauma, and objectification, while exploring and troubling tropes and stereotypes of Black Americans. Focused primarily on depictions of black womanhood alongside personal narratives, the collection tackles interior and exterior politics—of both the body and society, of both the individual and the collective experience. In Magical Negro, Parker creates a space of witness, of airing grievances, of pointing out patterns. In these poems are living documents, pleas, latent traumas, inside jokes, and unspoken anxieties situated as firmly in the past as in the present—timeless black melancholies and triumphs.
