Sept. 29, 2016 – AMPLIFY(HER) zine launch at AAWW

Join us on Thursday, Sept. 29, 7:00 to 9:00 pm, for the launch of the new zine, AMPLIFY(HER), the first-ever zine by and for undocumented women from the Asian diaspora. Pick up your copy and support undocumented Asian writers and artists, including event hosts Sonia Guinansaca of CultureStrike and Kay Ulanday Barrett, author of When The Chant Comes (Topside Press 2016). Speakers include zine editors Manolova “Manny” Yusuf, who leads police accountability and immigrant rights work at DRUM, and Israt Audry, a core member of RAISE: Revolutionizing Asian American Immigrant Stories on the East Coast, as well as readings by contributors Michelle Chen and Soonaenae. This publication was made possible by a grant to AALDEF from Asian Women Giving Circle.
