*A Zine (pronounced 'zeen' as in "magazine" without the "maga") is a self-published, small press, or homemade publication similar to a pamphlet. Zines often address specialized topics from an independent, controversial, or alternative viewpoint. They can be a collection of random personal thoughts or an expertly made political treatise.
Due to the independent nature of Zines they are not peer reviewed nor are they controlled by mainstream media or the editorial process of the publishing industry. These publications break from conventional format and are often photocopied, folded, and stapled. Zines can be visually inspiring and artistic and offer personal, passionate. and unedited viewpoints.
