What is a zine? Why do zine makers publish zines?
Beyond The Hijab and Shuxia share their journeys of making their own zines — a perfect fit for a day that celebrates independent voices in publishing.
About Beyond The Hijab
Beyond the Hijab was formed in 2013 as a platform to share the stories and perspectives of Muslim women in Singapore. For over a decade, the group has continued to advocate for Muslim women in Singapore, create intentional community conversations, and publish research unpacking lesser explored issues within the community.
