Bia! Zine Issue 003

Bia! – meaning ’food’ in Irish and ‘come’ in Igbo –  is a community storytelling project. Through the words and images of immigrant and diasporic communities in Ireland, Bia! seeks to document our commonality, counterbalance mainstream food narratives, and celebrate how immigrants and diasporas assert their presence in Ireland through food. 

Bia! Zine Issue 03 brings together stories and art from nearly 60 contributors connected to Ireland from across Asia, Africa, Latin America, the Caribbean, and mixed-heritage communities to explore their diasporic identity through food.

This issue traces how identity is formed in the kitchen through memory, unravels in movement, and is repaired through care and resistance, ultimately inviting readers to consider food not only as personal, but also as relational, fluid and a site for radical cultural possibility.
