Description

A zine (short for magazine or fanzine) is a self-published or (in this case), simple handmade work of original or appropriated texts and images. 

Zines can cover a wide range of topics, including art, politics, personal stories, and niche interests. Historically, zines have been a medium for marginalized communities to share their voices and build connections.

You can read an article about zines called The Radical Teacher, included as a part of the MLK Library Guide.
