On September 13, GEOZONe held a workshop on zine pedagogy in the postsecondary classroom.
We brought together Aparna Parikh, Assistant Professor of Women and Gender Studies at Penn State University, Rae Baker, Assistant Professor of Education at the University of Cincinnati, Jane Henderson, Assistant Professor of Geography at Dartmouth Univresity, and Angela Last, lecturer in Human Geography at University of Leicester, for a wide-ranging discussion on the history of zines, the pedagogical potential of zine-making, and the challenges of working with zines in the context of the marks-driven neoliberal classroom.
Hello from the GEOZONe collective!
It’s been four months since we’ve launched the GEOZONe web archive, and we’ve been overwhelmed by the response from scholars, activists, and zine-makers from across the world. Since June, we have archived fourty-two zines with material from more than twenty countries across the world. This wide array of material demonstrates how zines and print ephemera can serve many different purposes for the critical scholar/activist, including grassroots knowledge production, knowledge co-creation, public engagement, research dissemination, self-reflection, fostering critical dialogue, and expressing bold manifestos — to name just a few.
