About the Book:
Embark on a culinary and cultural journey with "Cocina Libre: Immigrant Resistance Recipes." This captivating ethnic cuisine book chronicles the resilience and defiance of immigrant communities through their cultural food traditions. Born from a desire to shed light on the often-overlooked human toll of immigration and detention in the U.S., this cookbook delves into the personal narratives of immigrants, refugees, and their families, sharing stories of struggle, triumph, and unwavering determination.

From aromatic spices to hearty stews, each authentic cultural recipe serves as a testament to the resilience and strength of those who have faced adversity. "Cocina Libre" challenges stereotypes, amplifies voices often unheard, and celebrates the rich tapestry of immigrant cultures. Whether you're a food enthusiast, social justice advocate, or simply curious about immigrant experiences, this book promises to enlighten and inspire.
