Based on exhaustive research in Greenville, SC, Kenneth H. Kolb documents the struggles of two Black neighborhoods. Outsiders ignored their complaints about the unsavory retail options on their side of town until the emergence of the well-intentioned but flawed "food desert" concept. Soon after, new allies arrived to help, believing grocery stores and healthier options were the key to better health. Their efforts, however, did not change locals' food consumption practices. Retail Inequality explains why and outlines the history of deindustrialization, urban public policy, and racism that are the cause of unequal access to food today. Kolb identifies retail inequality as the crucial concept to understanding today's debates over gentrification and community development. As this book makes clear, the battle over food deserts was never about food--it was about equality"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Food security $x Social aspects $z Greenville. $z Greenville. 650 0 $a Grocery trade $z Greenville. $z Greenville. 650 0 $a Food consumption $z Greenville. $z Greenville. 650 0 $a Equality $x Social aspects $z Greenville. $z Greenville. 650 7 $a Equality $x Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00914475 650 7 $a Food consumption. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00930721 650 7 $a Grocery trade. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00948035 651 7 $a South Carolina $z Greenville. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01203010 776 08 $i Online version: $a Kolb, Kenneth H., 1975- $t Retail inequality $d Oakland, California : University of California Press, [2022] $z 9780520384194 $w (DLC) 2021021915 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117012018.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DC3357C8EE0211ECABFB385646ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
