The journal Cooking A Resistance is the most recent addition to our publications. In the quest to tell our own stories and tell ourselves the stories that build us, we need to write. Cooking A Resistance is a serial publication aimed at documenting our activities based on the thematic issues we interrogate and act on as a platform for discourse and reflection. This first issue introduces the reader to our focus and hopes, collaborative work and goals through the projects we have produced over time. In the same way that one assembles ingredients to make a stew, Cooking A Resistance is a dialogue in book form—it discusses discourse and its relation to art history, political and social issues with their histories and legacies, as well as our approach of evoking indigenous methodology as our own form of resistance.
