By Ladee Hubbard ’93
Published Feb. 22, 2021
The Rib King deconstructs African American stereotypes and offers a critique on race, class, privilege, ambition, exploitation, and the seeds of rage in America. In this historical novel, set in early the 20th-century, Hubbard centers the narrative around the black servants of a down-on-its-heels upper-class white family.
