“The State of the Field” Robert Weems, University of Missouri, Columbia • I will briefly comment upon my 1998 book Desegregating the Dollar: African American Consumerism in the Twentieth Century. Moreover, I will discuss how it has stimulated further research on African American consumerism (to amplify some of the broad-based observations I made on the subject).
