Migrant Zine Collective

Migrant Zine Collective is an activist-based zine collective aiming to amplify, celebrate and share the voices of migrants of colour in Aotearoa (New Zealand). The collective was founded in 2017 upon the release of GEN M (short for “Generation Migrant”), a zine collated and self-published by Helen Yeung in the hopes of celebrating her Hong Kong-Chinese diasporic background, along with the personal stories of other migrant youth in Tāmaki Makaurau (Auckland). The collective is currently co-organised by a passionate group of women of colour, and has since expanded its work to a range of zine workshops, community events, pop-up libraries and digital collaborations both locally and around the globe.
