my new perzine, reimagining queer community, is finished!

reimagining queer community is a personal investigation into my evolving relationship to queerness, as well as some of the ways in which i navigate queer spaces around me. some of the topics in this zine include: alienation and estrangement from the queer community, what it means to feel connected, the myth of a cohesive queer community, being a spectator versus being a participant, (personal and shared) queer histories, and potential strategies to build new alliances.  

this was my first attempt at making a twenty four hour zine (it wound up taking three days due to work/life interruptions, but who’s counting?) it is 20 pages, 1/4 sized and text heavy. i am asking for $1 or a trade. if you are interested, please email uniunverse@gmail.com.

Ideological Hypocrisy is a socio-political zine, the first issue of which covers anti-choice activists who choose to have abortions. The zine contains many accounts from abortion doctors who have preformed abortions for pro-life activists, as well as accounts of violence perpetuated by the pro-life movement.

call for submissions - hoax #5: feminism & community

 here are some ideas to get your creative juices flowing:

• elitism (identity politics, border policing, & hierarchies within communities)
• cliques & exclusivities
• success & personal stories
• the environment (food politics & urban gardening & eco-feminism & women in farming/farm lands)
• accessibility (language & locations (urban vs rural) & academia & pretention & childcare)
• work/ production (economics & capitalism)
• social movements (then vs now - legacy of the 60s)
• assimilation vs liberation (when, if, and how to assimilate)
• the self (self-care & where the self ends and community begins)
• what makes a community (how does one feel included? & how do we include others & what it means to find a “home” (limits of family))
• networking (action & teamwork & friendship)
• “diversity” and what that means (do we need varieties of people in order to constitute a community? & tolerance vs acceptance (cultural relativity))
• space (physical/ emotional)
• legislation (policy & community organizing)
• love (hate & anger)

we also totally need lots of artwork (photos, collages, illustrations, drawings, paintings, comics, etc.)! particularly for background designs and things that compliment the written material.

we would like the zine to be finished as soon as possible, and would prefer to receive submissions before april 21st (within the month of march would be awesome!). if you are interested, please feel free to e-mail us your ideas for topics, or questions at hoaxzine(at)gmail(dot)com!
