The Revolution Will be Well Fed - Recipes for Creating Community

The Revolution Will Be Well Fed features gluten-free recipes* for snacking on while community organizing, as well as essays and history exploring the connections between food, community, and social movements.

Chapters include breakfast, snacks, and dessert, as well as essays about important events, organizations, and individuals that have placed community at the core of their work. Read about the Black Panther Party’s free breakfast program while making coffee cake, learn about sit-ins and strikes while snacking on hand pies, or gather for dessert to honor the people who laid the groundwork for sustained social movements. Readers can carry on the message of valuing community over capitalism through acts, both big and small, that prioritize inclusivity for every member of society. 

*Note: The recipes were developed using all-purpose gluten-free flour but readers can easily swap in all-purpose wheat flour. The recipes are intended to be flexible, scalable, and easy to pack. Bring them along to a potluck, your next community planning meeting, or even to the picket line!
