NoonIn this presentation\, I will highlight the troubled past (and present
) of fat stigma. \;While many believe that fatphobia is a relatively r
ecent invention\, I will underscore \;the centrality of slavery and ra
ce science in its perpetuation throughout the western \;world. I will
explain how the medical field took up the mantle of anti-fatness as a
\;result of social and cultural shifts in thinking about race and feminine
propriety in the \;early 20th century. I will conclude with an examin
ation of the scientific bases of the \;so called "obesity epidemic." T
