Zine 2. Digital Version. December 2025


Help Us Reach 500 € for the Next Issue!


Our next zine can exist thanks to collective support.
We need 500 € to cover printing, materials, design, and editing—and you can contribute as much or as little as you want.
  •  120 coffees on Ko-fi will fully fund our next issue
  • Or if 500 people give just 1 €, we’ll reach the goal together
Every contribution counts. Whether it’s one euro, one coffee, or more, you’re directly helping us bring the next issue to life—both digitally and in print. More info: https://ko-fi.com/artivism4ct

In an era that is marked by censorship and carefully curated narratives, this zine offers an uncensored space for what too often remains unheard. We believe that stories — raw, imperfect, messy, and real — are among the most powerful weapons against erasure. Whether told through visuals, words, or hybrid forms, these micro-narratives carry the force of lived experience and the courage of those who choose to speak up.

We thank all the 21 contributors who have shared their stories to help grow this alternative space and continue the tradition of self-publishing as resistance. We refuse to let institutions dictate which voices matter, which truths are valid, and which stories deserve to be heard.
