What does it mean when somebody wears a Bob Marley t-shirt? In his book Consuming Race, Ben Pitcher shows that wearing a shirt with a depiction of the reggae musician/counterculture hero can mean many things, but most of those things have to do with race, in one way or the other. This is exactly the process that Pitcher deals with in his book: how racial meanings are produced and reproduced through everyday consumption.
