Rest Is Resistance - Group...

Vines Graener

The work we do doesn’t define our worth. Imagine a world where justice includes space for rest and leisure, away from the relentless grind created by capitalism, white supremacy, and other oppressive forces. For centuries, these systems have exploited bodies for production, leading to destruction and harm by denying the inherent divinity in every human being. But now, people are waking up to this manipulation, and they’re starting to prioritize rest and healing. 
America was built on the labor of Black and Indigenous people, whose right to rest was denied. The capitalist system grew out of violence and the theft of labor on plantations. These oppressive systems view human bodies as property, not as divine beings. We've been conditioned to believe we must work endlessly or risk falling into poverty. But there’s more beyond this narrow view.

What is Queer Food? - How We...

John Birdsall

A celebrated food writer's expansive, audacious excavation of the development of modern queer identity and food culture. 
 
 
 
Food in America and Europe has long been shaped, twisted, and upended by queer creatives. Beloved food writer John Birdsall fills the gap between the past and present, channeling the twin forces of criticism and cultural history to propel readers into the kitchens, restaurants, swirling party-houses, and humming interior lives of James Baldwin, Alice B. Toklas, Truman Capote, Esther Eng, and others who left an indelible mark on the culinary world from the margins. Queer food is brunch quiche à la Craig Claiborne, Richard Olney's ecstatic salade composée, and Rainbow Ice-Box Cake from Ernest Matthew Mickler's White Trash Cooking. It's the intention surrounding a meal, the circumstances behind it, the people gathered around the table. 
 
 
 
With cinematic verve and prose that dazzles, What Is Queer Food? is a monumental work: a testament to food's essential link to a modern queerness that reveals how, like fashion or tastes in music, food has become a language of LGBTQ+ identity.
