HKBU library YT2025 M10 "Race has long shaped shopping experiences for many Americans. Retail exchanges and establishments have made headlines as flashpoints for conflict not only between blacks and whites, but also between whites, Mexicans, Asian Americans, and a wide variety of other ethnic groups, who have at times found themselves unwelcome at white-owned businesses. Race and Retail documents the extent to which retail establishments, both past and present, have often catered to specific ethnic and racial groups. Using an interdisciplinary approach, the original essays collected here explore selling and buying practices of nonwhite populations around the world and the barriers that shape these habits, such as racial discrimination, food deserts, and gentrification. The contributors highlight more contemporary issues by raising questions about how race informs business owners' ideas about consumer demand, resulting in substandard quality and higher prices for minorities than in predominantly white neighborhoods. In a wide-ranging exploration of the subject, they also address revitalization and gentrification in South Korean and Latino neighborhoods in California, Arab and Turkish coffeehouses and hookah lounges in South Paterson, New Jersey, and tourist capoeira consumption in Brazil. Race and Retail illuminates the complex play of forces at work in racialized retail markets and the everyday impact of those forces on minority consumers. The essays demonstrate how past practice remains in force in subtle and not-so-subtle ways"-- Retail trade Social aspects United States History. 208980 Stores, Retail Social aspects United States History. 208981 Minorities United States Economic conditions. 208982 Shopping Social aspects United States History. 208983 Consumption (Economics) Social aspects United States History. 195090 SOCIAL SCIENCE / Ethnic Studies / General. 185847 SOCIAL SCIENCE / Discrimination & Race Relations. 208984 BUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Consumer Behavior. 208985 United States Race relations Economic aspects History. 208986 United States Commerce Social aspects History. 208987 Bay, Mia. 208988 Fabian, Ann. 208989 = C.1 SDU GBE lcc 108607 108607 0 0 lcc 0 HF5429 R118 02015 0 CGB 283892 SDU SDU GEN3 2025-10-03 2 0 HF5429 R118 2015 1000360978 2025-10-03 00:00:00 C.1 2025-10-03 GBE
