Dinner & A Book - Pork Belly Tacos

As the daughter of Cuban and Mexican immigrants, Yvonne Castañeda had to navigate an American focus on achievement and appearance in a family that used food as their love language. Her memoir, Pork Belly Tacos with a Side of Anxiety, offers insights about the complexities of the immigrant experience and the way food can carry emotional weight. April Lidinsky welcomes Castañeda to the studio to prepare a meal and discuss topics that touch all of us as we struggle to find our place in our communities and balance in our lives.
