Paperback, 192 Pages: From cooks who have fed rebels to collective kitchens after ecological disasters, food has long fueled resistance, protest, and mutual aid. Nourishing Resistance centers these acts of culinary solidarity through 23 contributors—cooks, farmers, writers, organizers, academics, and dreamers—exploring queer potlucks, rebel ancestors, disability justice, Indigenous food sovereignty, and opposition to toxic diet culture. They share stories of biryani at Delhi protests, Puerto Rican farm meals, and pay-what-you-can dishes in Hong Kong. They document COVID-19 food programs in Buenos Aires and NYC, trace the origins of “Bella Ciao” from women rice workers, and imagine postcapitalist futures with collective farms and wild herbs. Through essays, poems, and stories, Nourishing Resistance shows food as central to struggles for autonomy and liberation worldwide.
