Pocket Histories: Zine-making to Share Community Stories

Sign up or log in to save this to your schedule and see who's attending!

What (hi)stories are erased by mainstream historical narratives, and how does this impact the ways we understand our identity? We will explore DIY publishing to allow families and communities to resist erasure. Participants will create ‘pocket zines’ sharing family, community, and cultural stories and will be able to upload their zine onto “Pocket Histories,” a digital archival space.
