BLOG POST IN PROGRESS

Sadly, we don't have any issues of Pagan's Head zine at Barnard, though we do have Pagan Kennedy's books. I'm using her zine cover as a weird nod to today being the 50th anniversary of John F. Kennedy being assassinated.

Pagan's Head cover from Hilobrow

All Grown Up by Sophie Houser, 2013

"Those days ended when you turned 10
And your palate changed.
The first time I ate a cake and it was too sweet
I cried.
On the inside.

"Salad stopped tasting so bad.
Meat, milk and pasta weren't your three favorite dishes
anymore.
And suddenly
desires got a bit more complicated."

I love that last line.

Awakening by Jaclyn Walsh, 2013

Handwritten, on an angle, takes up the whole page:

"Today I learned that I really like Jackson Pollock and Marisol Escobar. (more on this later)."

The Best & Worse Zine You've Read by Hannah Levin, 2013

Late Night Cereal Addiction by Caroline Strauss, 2013

"Your name does you no justice. You are neither pin, nor apple. I can't even eat you, because you're preventing the table from floating towards the ceiling."

Whoa.

Birthday Party #1 by Khris Acosta, 2013

"I have been 'accused' of being too white because of the things that I am into. So there I was in the awkward space between not being punk enough and not being brown enough. But if you look at the history of punk latin@s, filipino@s and other people of color have had a long history of participation. From Alice Bag of the Bags in the late 70s LA scene to Los Crudos and other Latin@ bands from the Pilsen area of Chicago, to the punk scene in the philippines which is very much alive and has been developing on its own, punk is very much NOT a white thing."

High St. Este de Oakland: Tierra de Lucha y Limones by Brenda Montaño, 2012

"East Oakland is under constant surveillance. Cop sirens wail into the air at all times of the day: morning and night. On a Saturday night, you will see two cop cars, separated by less than a mile, pulling someone over on International Blvd. Their flashlights violate the brown faces, no longer smiling. I compare this to the U.S. Occupation in Iraq. I compare this to the Mexican Military Occupation in Veracruz. Under constant attack, how can it be expected that people won't fight back?"

And she thanks the librarian from the Oakland History Room who helped her.

Nerds of Color #1, sometime between 2010 and 2013

On Struggling: Identity edited by Monica Trinidad, 2012?

On Struggling, #2: Self-Care edited by Monica Trinidad, 2013?

"Querid@s QTPOCs
"KNOW that the system is built by people who are not about us. The system is not there for our benefit. Our communities' needs are not facilitated by this set-up. But we hustle hard and get ours when and where we can. ... And I'm not talking about Obama as president, Sotomayor in supreme court or lobbying for the right to marry. That's cute as far as representation and all, but these assholes are still working for the system."

CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS

As[I]Am is looking for submissions for our first spring issue, RESISTANT BODIES. We are an Asian American social justice publication that seeks to discuss, imagine, and re-imagine all the ways Asian American identities intersect with other identities and movements toward justice. In this issue, we are looking to curate pieces that examine the physical/mental body as a site for struggle, transformation, reflection… whatever that means to you.

Read the rest of the call on the AS(I)AM website. They're also looking for new editors.

AS(I)AM's founder is Barnard alumna and former zine assistant Jordan Alam'13.

Event website& Facebook page

A zine, or fanzine, is a self-published work of original or appropriated texts and images usually produced today by a photocopier and circulated to less than 1,000 readers -- sometimes to as few as 100. Motivated by the desire for self-expression and not for profit, a zine tends to be counter culture, probing topics outside the mainstream: fanfiction, politics, art and design, personal journal, single topic obsession, sex and gender. Its origins date back to Thomas Paine who published Common Sense: Addressed to the Inhabitants of America --a pamphlet published on January 9, 1776 that urged colonists to declare and fight for independence.

Given their appeal and impact, can zines work well in educational spheres? And just how do intentionally paper publications fit into the digital landscape of libraries? Zine libraries are found locally, across the nation, and in other countries, and teaching with zines may offer rich alternatives to more traditional methods.

Our panel will present some interesting perspectives and focus on the role of DIY publications in creating space for personal voice and personal expression, and as an extension in education, including the traditional classroom, non-traditional classroom, library, and other community spaces.

Please RSVP no later than Monday, January 27th.

The International Queer Art/Activism Zine Project by Miyuki Baker

It's been a while, but I'm back in the zine cataloging saddle and dedicate this week's additions to my sister Danna, whose 30th birthday it is today.

This photo of Danna is fitting for a blog post about zines.

Confession: I didn't reach my weekly cataloging goal of 16 zines. A whole bunch of this batch had tables of contents, which take a long time to input, even if it's totally worth it to include them.

Collide: on Physical Disabilities edited by JC, 2013 Zines P3754c

Cover from Stranger Danger Distro

In which you discover that people you thought had it all together are just as messed up and insecure as you are.

Curiositer #s 1-4 by Kelly, 2013 Zines M345c

Zines after a librarian's heart, each with it's own set of SWBATs at the beginning.

#1 is about information literacy, like "But I really worry about whether our collective ability to poke & prod & chisel out oddly shaped pieces of information is just withering. Just because Google doesn't have it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. The real key is sorting out when that matters. If I can't find Prince music videos on YouTube I will be sad but not hugely hindered. But the fact that statistics about police stops in my community are not readily available? That has the potential to affect policies & understanding of justice (or injustice) in a real way."

Kelly also challenges Roy Tennant's "Only librarians like to search; everyone else likes to find." routine with a food analogy.

#2 gives you a worksheet for definining your question.

#3 is about how information is organized ♥

#4 assures readers that "It is okay to ask!" and includes a hand drawn Venn diagram

The reader also comes to understand that Kelly is something of a Jay-Z fan.

Deafula #6: Tour Stories by Kerri Radley, 2013 Zines C58d

Number of times the word "fuck*" appears: 14 (unless I missed some)

Kerri confesses that she's never seen an episode of The Golden Girls and shares how helpful it is if readers provide her with a copy of what they're going to read so she can follow along.

Leeking Ink #32: Vida Silvestre by Davida Gypsy Breier, 2013 Zines B745l

Written about six years after #31, this zine chronicles Davida & family's trip to Puerto Rico.

Call for submissions: "Cat-Calling" Zine for TALK Magazine

TALK is a publication based out of the Intercultural Resource Center (IRC) at Columbia University. They are an online and print publication dedicated to uniting groups on campus and in the greater NYC area that work for positive social change and the greater social good. By discussing and interacting with issues that include, but are not limited to, race, gender, sexism, racism, environmental justice, economic justice, social justice, ethnicity, sexuality, disabilities, class, religion, health and nationality.

TALK is currently in the process of making a zine that is centered around catcalling. Our aim is to make this experience visible and ignite conversations around gender-based harassment. We are asking that people from our community who have experienced this behavior on the street, over the internet and etc, to share their stories.

To share your story, fill out the google form below!
