The Native American roots of Texas Mexican food serve up tacos, feminism and cultural resistance. Food narrates who we are and constructs new ways of understanding what it means to be “American.” Texas Mexican food offers a new type of cultural encounter. One of understanding, building a table where ALL ARE WELCOME.
