DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by the BU Food Studies Programs\; BU LGBTQIA+ Center 
 for Faculty & Staff\; Institute for Gender\, Sexuality\, and Feminist Stud
 ies of 9IÖÆ×÷³§Ãâ·Ñ\; and Social Science and Humanities Research Coun
 cil of Canada\n\nJoin the co-editors\, Alex D. Ketchum and Megan J. Elias 
 and anthology contributors Jennifer Park\, Danielle Rousseau\, Jo Michael 
 Rezes for a discussion of Queers at the Table and the importance of acknow
 ledging queer food. This anthology was developed out of the first Queer Fo
 od Conference (QFC) held at Boston University (BU) in Spring 2024. Queer f
 ood will be served\, and books will be available for purchase.\n\nQueers a
 t the Table is an anthology of essays\, comics\, and recipes that reveals 
 the dynamic and transformative relationship between queerness and food. Fo
 od has long played an important role in queer culture. Lesbian- and queer 
 women-run feminist restaurants\, cafes\, and coffeehouses have been safe s
 paces for queer and trans folk where gender norms can be challenged and wh
 ere female authority is legitimized. During the AIDS epidemic\, gay men an
 d their allies centered food as an expression of collective care for those
  who needed it most. And queer and trans folk have asserted themselves in 
 a restaurant culture largely controlled by white cisgender men.\n\nQueers 
 at the Table celebrates the various intersections between queers and food.
  In its essays\, comics\, and recipes\, the book shows how this shared cul
 ture fosters connections\, defies norms\, honors legacies\, and creates co
 mmunity.\n
