Read America’s War on the Overweight by Kate Dailey and Abby Ellin and answer the following question. Then “submit” your work.
Dailey and Ellin describe American hostility toward overweight people as a “bubbling rage” (paragraph 16), examining examples of “fat bias,” its history in America, and its psychological origins. Investigate American culture through magazines, movies, music, books, television shows, or politics for evidence to support your own thesis in an essay about attitudes toward fatness and thinness.
