Just released! This June 2026 feminist zine is all about iconic women throughout history. This is truly one of my favourite themes because women are amazing and do so many great things whether it’s in science, politics, sport, literature, etc. Give me a theme and I will find an amazing women to write about. The only thing hard about making this zine was cutting down the list of women to feature. I seriously have a long list of names to make a whole other volume or three.

One of my favourite people in this zine is Ida B. Wells. What a powerhouse she was. Born in 1862 into slavery in Mississippi, Ida Wells was one of the foremost investigative journalists of her time; a vocal feminist, suffragist and a leader in the civil rights movement. Wells reported on racial segregation and inequality for her own paper, Memphis Free Speech and Headlight as well as other black-owned newspapers. She is well known for her anti-lynching activism and writings. Her important pamphlet, “Southern horrors: lynch law in all its phases” printed by New York Age Print in 1892 showed how lynching was used as a political and economical tool to intimidate African Americans. She also wrote, “A Red Record” in 1895, another investigative pamphlet outlining statistics on the causes of lynchings. Wells is also a co-founder of the NAACP. She was the author of many investigative articles and pamplets. An early and very vital zinester of sorts.

Also featured in this zine are Eleanor Roosevelt, Angela Davis and Queen Elizabeth I (all pictured above) plus a bevy of fabulous ladies like Dolores Huerta, Maya Lin, Harriet Tubman, Viola Desmond, Fran Lebowitz and more!

This feminist zine is available in the store.
