Home holds dualities and contradictions: celebration and lament; threat and safety; disaster and sanctuary; stability and mobility; ownership (heirs' property) and displacement (gentrification, climate catastrophes); rootedness and migration; steadiness and instability; happy reunions and complicated returns. In this issue, guest edited by Blair LM Kelley and LeRhonda Manigault-Bryant, we explore critical reflections of home that invoke the necessity of grounding in place, understanding that while the meanings of home are myriad (and both universal and discrete), the word home, as a concept, invokes something for everyone.
Marcie Cohen Ferris is professor of American studies at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She is a former president of the Southern Foodways Alliance.
