We believe that Black people and people of color have always been at the forefront of zine making and zine culture, and have always disrupted white spaces. We believe in restorative and transformative justice as alternatives to calling the cops and incarceration. We work from an anti-oppression framework, understanding that we are both part of the problem and the solution. | facebook.com/brownandproudpress | |||||||||||||||||||||
