The Menu: a food memoir and buffalo management
The late educator, writer, and artist Thomas Pecore Weso’s memoir, Survival Food: North Woods Stories by a Menominee Cook, was just released.

The new book gives readers a snapshot of his years growing up on his Wisconsin reservation in the 60s and 70s. Weso’s threads his memories in with the food that comes from hunted, fished, and gathered sources.

Also, Congress has a chance to provide a consistent source of funding for tribes and tribal organizations for managing bison herds. Those are among the topics on The Menu, our regular feature on Indigenous food and food sovereignty hosted by Andi Murphy.
