Exploring anti-fatness and anti-Blackness at the intersections of race, police violence, gender identity, fatness, and health.
To live in a body both fat and Black is to intersect at the margins of a society that normalizes anti-fatness as anti-Blackness: hyper-policed by state and society, passed over for housing and jobs, and derided and misdiagnosed by medical professionals, fat Black people in the United States are subject to culturally sanctioned discrimination, abuse, and trauma.
In Belly of the Beast, author Da’Shaun Harrison–a fat, Black, disabled, and non-binary writer AMAB (assigned male at birth)–offers an incisive, fresh, and precise exploration of anti-fatness as anti-Blackness. Foregrounding the state-sanctioned murder of Eric Garner in a historical analysis of the policing, disenfranchisement, and invisibilizing of fat Black men and trans and nonbinary AMAB people, Harrison discusses the pervasive, insidious ways that anti-fat anti-Blackness shows up in everyday life. Fat people can be legally fired in 49 states for being fat; they’re more likely to be houseless. Fat people die at higher rates from misdiagnosis or non-treatment; fat women are more likely to be sexually assaulted. And at the intersections of fatness, race, disability, and gender identity, these abuses are exacerbated.
Taking on desirability politics, f*ckability, healthism, hyper-sexualization, invisibility, and the connections between anti-fatness and police violence, Harrison viscerally and vividly illustrates the myriad harms of anti-fat anti-Blackness–and offers strategies for dismantling denial, unlearning the cultural programming that says “fat is bad,” and moving beyond the world we have now toward one that makes space for the fat and Black.

Fatties who lack sufficient self control to regulate their intake of food should be fitted with a gastric band. Nobody wants to see rolls of sweaty flab whilst in public. Ultimately its the kindest thing to do for them.
I’ll tell you where there is no anti black politics, Africa. The kindest thing would be to send them back there so they will be safe from evil white man’s laws and oppression. But they prefer being oppressed to going back there.

Robbie22 you can’t send the back to some where they have never been. I bet the black American ancestors were here long before your inbred indentured ancestors stumbled off the boat. How long has your inbred clan been in the US? Were they scientifically illiterate like you? Another know nothing who is as interesting as a second coat of paint.
I consider this book scientifically illiterate as well. Is that what drew you to it? If it was the DNC family cookbook, including 2 recipes from Hillary, you would attack it just as furiously. You & your troop are one trick ponies.

Robbie22
I was a very fat boy when i was little. My comrades in school and in the backyard always told how disgusting i was. At last at an age of 25 years i managed to drop 80 kgs but when i turned 45 my weight went up again due to my overeating. I agree with You Robbie22 you normal people should not be forced to see me. I have stayed inside my rooms since 10-12 years back. The problem is that now i am living from the taxes You pay. I am waiting to collect courage enough to end my life…

Mikke, you are a profoundly valuable and dignified human being. You’re clearly an intelligent and sensitive person. The world is a far better place with people like you in it. Don’t define yourself by what fools say, they have their problems too. Please reach out to others around you, there are many supports available - online, by phone and in person.
In addition, there are incredibly nourishing resources in books, music and art. Bless you.

Robbie, have you ever woken up, looked at yourself in the mirror and thought “wow, I am a complete piece of sh1t”?
Of course not. That would take an amount of self-awareness that you’ve been denied.
Nobody needs people like you around Robbie, not even your “wife” and “kids” (quotation marks deliberate).
February 18th, 2023
Mikke do not let absolute no-marks like Robbie, and others like him, define your life.
One day at a time, pal. Small, achievable daily goals.

Ha ha ha ha. What nonsense
February 19th, 2023
This freak would rather write a book accusing everyone else of being racist than lose weight.
February 19th, 2023
Mikke too bad you aren’t black and queer: then you could blame society for making you fat and/or stigmatizing your fat.
