Zines are self-published forms of expression. They lend themselves ot the voices of the marginalised – you can write, print and distribute whatever you would like with no permission required. Self publishing is key to resistance. Today with the resurgence of authoritarianism this is more important than ever. @anarkiss_zine

This week will be a practical workshop on zine making. We’ll have materials available, but if you have anything else you would like to use please bring it along!

If anyone has information about any immigration raids that have occurred or anti-raids activity taking place in Bath, please get in contact with us on instagram or by email: bicep@tutamail.com
