The Delectable Negro

  • ... that The Delectable Negro describes how Nat Turner's body was turned into "medicinal" grease? Source: "Woodard carefully and compellingly links scenes of actual cannibalism—including the transformation of Nat Turner's body into “medicinal” grease (172)—to the starvation of slaves and to more metaphysical, parasitic relations that use the enslaved person’s body to fuel the construction of whiteness." –The American Historical Review
