Anything anyone wants to add? Please share it in the chat!
Skim a zine for four minutes and then switch, for four rounds. You will not be able to read every zine in its entirety.
Find more Barnard zines to read online. (Not now--later!)
Make notes about what you absorbed and how zines feel to you.
Discuss: 10 minutesHow did the zine make you feel? What types of propaganda work on you?
Why did the creator(s) make a zine instead of...a book, a poem, street theater, an Instagram post, a meme, a protest, a letter to the editor, etc.?
How to the images complement or complicate the text?
Think about which elements you connect to and how you might use them to make an academic argument in a non-academic way.
