As part of the Equitable Futures Youth Forum this year approximately 100 high school students will be collaborating to answer the question “What can we do NOW to create a more equitable FUTURE?” In teams, students will make Zines (a homemade work of original or borrowed texts and images/art, usually in booklet form, focused on a particular topic, that can be easily copied and passed out or published online) to spread awareness about an important issue that they want to improve.
We are hoping to have magazines available where students can cut out images or words to add to their Zine. Please drop your magazines off at Lyn Weber's desk.
