This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers.

A short collection of mostly vegetarian recipes (including some "for a crowd" -- meaning, like, 10), combined with a few random essays on political activism seemingly written for something else. Was quickly thrown together and it's obvious. The best thing about it is the striking cover design and the fact that proceeds will be donated to the ACLU (not for my copy though -- I got a freebie from LT Early Readers). (

I'm looking forward to trying some of these recipes. I appreciated the realistic advice on how to get involved without burning out. It's a marathon, not a sprint!

This book contains short essays on how to get involved and become active in social movements and recipes that could be used to share meals with fellow activists. The advice is common sense and not terriblt inspiring. The recipes are healthy ethnic sorts of foods. (

An excellent little book, filled with delicious recipes and good ideas for those of us who feel the need, or desire, to resist. As has been noted, this would be an excellent gift or a good addition to any kitchen. (

This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers.

Not only does this book have delicious and diverse recipes, but it also includes brief essays about political involvement and inclusion. It would be a great gift for someone who likes to cook and is politically aware, but I can see myself going back to it regularly for inspiration. (
