Review

"As a food writer, you're often told to 'stick to food.' Julia Turshen knows better. She knows that food *is* politics, from the diverse array of people who cook it to those who work so hard grow it. And if you want to get optimistic about it-and hey, why not?-it's the one thing that unites us all."-Adam Rapoport, Editor in Chief,Bon Appétit

"What can you do? Cook for your community and yourself.Simple food-honestly sourced and lovingly made-creates connections, gives fuel to the fight, starves ignorance and apathy. Where to start? With a spoon and a pot and this inspiring, instructive book."-Adam Sachs, Editor in Chief, Saveur

"The best cookbooks are catalogs of ideas."-John T. Edge, Director, Southern Foodways Alliance,and Author, The Potlikker Papers

"What an incredible reminder of the power of food to bring people together. This book will inspire you, will make you want to talk, to listen, and to act. It will also make you very hungry."-Abbi Jacobson, Co-creator and Co-star, Broad City

"Julia Turshen is my 'shero.' In Feed the Resistance, she gives us a manifesto for food activism. From essays by fellow food fighters like Bryant Terry, Caleb Zigas, and Shakirah Simley to a resource list for novices to recipes that can feed small gatherings or multitudes, she blazes a trail for those who want to use food to create change. If that weren't enough, all profits go to the ACLU. Buy this book and begin your own food journey."-Dr. Jessica B. Harris, Culinary Historian and Author, My Soul Looks Back --This text refers to the hardcover edition.

Political Cookery?

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 14, 2020

Verified Purchase

I don't consider myself very political, so I got this book for two reasons: I love Turshen's thoughtful approach to cooking and the title sounded something more seriously different about cooking which I really have been thinking about lately, i.e., food speaks to more than nourishing bodies, it aldo nourishes minds and emotions. Thank you for crystallization in a way I hadn't quite considered. Marx said (much more intelligently than I) that if he had someone philosophically by the age of six, he had them intellectually the rest of their lives, and when one adds in the full parameters of feeding them, it makes perfect sense. Thus, if I want someone to think as I do, act as I do, or simply as I would desire, I need to go all in. If I want to help them, change them, or indeed, change the world, I start simply and saintly, doing my best: feeding my culture, my religion, my hopes, doubts, fears and most of all, my love without any ideas attached, just feeding them to whomsoever was around at the moment. In some weird way this makes perfect sense. My father always said we were obligated by Life (or God) to leave our piece of the world better than we found it, down to wiping splashed water off the sink after washing our hands (even though my brother was a slob and left a wet mess that wasn't my fault, dammit!) without blame or fault as to who made the mess, just fix it bcs you can. Julia Turshen seems to believe one can fix a lot with food. I humbly agree and it helps that there are some unique and wonderful recipes in this book. The simple sweet potatoes and starkly divine. The bread pudding is to die for. The causes are up to us as she points out: every cause is served better with food, and some of my own precious ones are even served better without my words. Good on, Julia. Sorry, but by the grace of Julia Child, a Julia speaking to the inherent justice, equality and love in food allows first person relationship with that cook forever. Cuidada, chica, you are heard well. Yes, five stars as the issue includes recipes, kitchens, hearts, minds, and souls.

Activism through food

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 14, 2018

Verified Purchase

I love a good cookbook and this does not disappoint in that regard. But what I like best about this book is that Julia Tershen used her skills and knowledge for her activism. This reinforces my belief that we don't need to be in the streets if that isn't where we can make the most impact on our cause. This book includes activist profiles and tips along with recipes focused on feeding large groups, portable food, and easy-to-prepare items. Perfect self-care for activists.

This little book is big on ideas! Changing everyday behavior, like going to a restaurant, where people don't look like you to participating and/or creating groups for citizen action. It's a treasure. I bought many to give as gifts and very proud to say that the money is going to a great organization, the ACLU. You give and get at the same time!

Food fills the space between people and can be used to bridge the gap between communities that need strengthening and healing. A wonderful collection of recipes and writing that links what we do to what and how we eat. A great gift for someone who is hungry for nourishment and values justice and social reform.
