The name os the zine that i chose was “Sula”. The goal of this zine is to show the history of people of color and the contributions that they have made and the importance of people of color.   Sula has zines in the “sula journals” that showcase mostly photographs, but because it is in a journal we can assume that there is some writing on the zines and about the zines.  This zine gave me inspiration on how I can create one about a personal struggle, but one that also affects many other people. This topic being mental health.

There has been a resurgence of print in the age of expeditious digital consumption. In theory, the internet should have rendered zines (self-published, small circulation magazines) and small press communities obsolete. With millions of articles posted daily to social media, it's easy to get caught up in an addictively endless scroll, which itself has some longing for the heydays of print and paper. The popularity of zines today, however, should not be chocked up to nostalgia alone. Rather, the printed medium has long been a tool for political and social engagement amongst artists and writers of color.

The black literary zine, Fire!! created during the

of the 1920s by writers such as Langston Hughes and Zora Neale Hurston is an early example. Self-publishing continued through the decades, with the Black Panther Party Newspaper and the Chilean women's magazine Aquelarre. Still, the history of zine culture remains largely dominated by narratives of white men and women.

Utilizing both the tangibility of print and the connectedness afforded by the internet, today's artists and writers of color are continuing to create spaces for dialogue, pioneering conversations through zines-a medium that allows them to exchange ideas, opinions, and art on their own terms. These eight zines are just a few of the notable print publications claiming space and reinvigorating a decades-long tradition of collective healing through communal expression.

This zine aims to validate the feelings of those facing anxiety. They do this by drawing pictures that show or illustrate our feelings after being “successful” in something or feeling good at a specific time. They include a plethora of hand-drawn pictures to aid in this. I chose this zine simply because it's extremely relatable to the same thinking patterns, same thoughts, same experiences, and the same feelings during these encounters.

When the punk scene started in 1976 in the UK Mark Perry, who established the fanzine, felt that there should be a magazine that was devoted to the punk scene which was punk rock. It was also important because it was the first fanzine that was about punk rock. The goal of the fanzine was for young people to get their alternative opinion across. The goal was to also show that anyone could easily, cheaply, and quickly create a fanzine. There were multiple kinds of media that were used to create Sniffin' Glue. He used a typewriter or felt tip pen. He would use cow gum to cut and paste graphics. And then he would go to his local photocopying shop. Photocopying really played a big role because, "it limited graphic experimentation to black and white tones and imagery based on collage, enlargement, and reduction." This could be inspiring to someone because it’s different. During the ’70s this zine was about being different from the norm, standing out, doing something on your own, and being different. They could take the meaning of this zine and apply it to their zine or artwork.

The zine I chose is called The Tenth. The tenth is about black gay men wanting equality and to be treated fair like how the other gay men gets treated. In this zine they used photography and newspapers for their media. I chose this zine because I support BIPOC and because I  like learning about culture.

For Girls Who Cry Often is a zine that focuses and explores mental health for women. This zine was published by Lina Wu and has 20+ contributors that create poetry, illustrations, comics, photography, and designs. All contributions focus on the female experience of mental health. Wu has said "For much of my life, I noticed that 'getting emotional' was seen as a girly or feminine thing - meaning it is often dismissed as dramatic and frivolous". She wanted to created something that helped women feel less alone in their dark times. Someone could find this inspiring by relating to the content that is being shown. Unfortunately, this zine is no longer in commission.
