Abstract "Resilient Kitchens: American Immigrant Cooking in a Time of Crisis is a stimulating collection of essays about the lives of immigrants in the United States before and during the COVID-19 pandemic, told through the lens of food. Their stories range from emotional reflections on hardship, loss, and resilience to journalistic investigations of racism in the American food system. Aimed at a popular audience and also designed to be suitable for use in undergraduate classrooms, the volume includes a vibrant mix of perspectives from professional food writers, restaurateurs, scholars, and activists. Each contribution is accompanied by a recipe of special importance to the author. These recipes invite readers to materially engage with the essays. The volume features hand-drawn illustrations by Filipino-American artist Angelo Dolojan, gorgeous food photography, and images of pandemic life contributed by all of the authors"-- Provided by publisher.
