Abstract
Through an analysis of Animal, Vegetable, Miracle, No Impact Man, and Deep Economy, this essay examines how local food movement arguments reinforce a monoculture identity for the movement. Analyzing movement rhetoric for how it accounts (or does not account) for the lived experiences of the poor, illustrates how blind spots in local food movement arguments aimed at popular audiences construct those of low socioeconomic status as outside the bounds of movement membership. The essay contends that recognition of broader practices, knowledge, and lived experiences in movement rhetoric might make space for the development of a polycultural movement.
