A nice day for a Labor Day Ralley! Or maybe a Music Festival? I made a zine for the occasion. I can't wait for Midterms! #laborday #protest #zine
The front cover of a zine titled "Crease and Resist," a play on the phrase "Cease and Desist". The front page lists upcoming elections, specifically the U.S. Midterm Elections of 2026, which includes one-third U.S. Senate seats, all House of Representative seats, half of Florida State Senate seats, and all of Florida State House of Representative seats. The page also encourages the reader to vote in local elections, such as County, Town, City, Municipality, and School District Elections, and to visit their Board Meetings which are often posted to their website.The inner spread of the zine, titled "In Case You Missed It", has several important news stories that are ongoing. A short summary of the stories are as follows:
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and FDOT removing the Pulse memorial rainbow crosswalk.
The Federal Judge injunction to remove Alligator Alcatraz after a lawsuit was filed by environmental groups and the Miccosukee Tribe.
Governors in 19 states, including Florida, have agreed to the deployment of National Guard to their state. In related news, the National Guard in D.C. have been given authorization to carry pistols and rifles.
Obergefell Vs. Hodges, the Supreme Court case allowing same sex marriage, will be discussed by judges at the judges' conference on 2/29. The judges will discuss whether to reconsider the case in court.
Trump wants to charge teens in D.C. as young as 14 years old as adults.
Lisa Cook, Federal Reserve employee, is suing Trump for his illegal attempt to fire her.
Kilmar Abrego Garcia is facing a second ICE detention, under threat of deportation to Uganda. The government is trying to coerce a guilty plea with deportation to Costa Rica instead, but he is refusing.The last page of the zine is titled "Playlist of the Summer." The zine has a section about the ongoing weeks- and months-long protests in Denver, Chicago, NYC, Phoenix, Dallas, Portland, Los Angeles, and D.C. This section of the zine explains that some people are concerned that coverage about the protests are being censored or engagement suppressed on social media. To get around that, people on social media have been refering to the protests as music festivals. Additionally, there is a small section deicated to celebrating the protest where this zine was distributed being referenced in the local newspaper. At the bottom, there is a list of sources that were used in the contruction of this zine, including U.S. Senate and House websites, the Florida Divisions of Elections website, the Supreme Court Website, Ballotpedia, NPR, WSVN, WPEC, Friend of the Everglades, Democracy Now, Pensacola News Journal, NBC, Forbes, ABC, CNN, MSNBC, and BBC.

This is the Zine I handed out at my local-ish No Kings Protest! I also handed out "I Dissent" buttons that I made! #nokings #idissent #protest
The front cover of the "Crease & Resist" Zine. This edition was written and printed for the No Kings protest on June 14th, 2025. A subtitle reads "I'm not afraid of the big bad bill." Following is a short description of the "Big Beautiful Bill" budget reconciliation Bill H.R. 1. There is a list of Trump's goals for the bill, including: cuts to clean energy programs; cuts to food stamp programs; gives money to Elon Musk's Space X program for the "Golden Dome" project; cuts to gender-affirming care; cuts to Planned Parenthood; limits to judges' ability to enforce contempt of court charges; prevents AI regulation for 10 years; cuts to Medicaid/Medicare; increases budget for ICE/mass deportation; allows sale of public lands for mining and timber. Underneath is a call to action: call your Senators and Representatives. Recommendation to download 5Calls app.The middle spread of the June 14th Crease & Resist Zine. Required reading (all books available at the library, and on audiobook): A People's History of the United States, by Howard Zinn. A User's Guide to Democracy, by Nick Capodice and Hannah McCarthy. Let This Radicalize you, by Kelly Hayes and Mariame Kaba. A subtitle reads Local Legislation, and provides some details on local government elections and upcoming town council/commissioners regular meetings that constituants can attend. The right side lists multiple cities/towns ajoining the town that I attended for No Kings, but the blurb recommends finding your municipality by searching on your county's property appraiser's website. Then, search for your municipality's website for their next scheduled regular meeting and election. The blurb also recommends watching a livestream of the meeting online, if available, or speaking at a meeting if you go in person. Agendas are posted online before the meetings.The back page of the June 14th Crease & Resist Zine. Know Your Rights for Protesting, cited from the ACLU. 
1. You don't need a permit to protest in response to breaking news, or to march along streets or sidewalks as long as you don't block traffic or access to federal buildings.
2. In public spaces, you are allowed to photograph anything in plain view, including federal buildings and police.
3. If you believe your rights have been violated: write everything down, get contacts for any witnesses, take photos of injuries.
4. If you are stopped by police, ask if you are free to go. If they say yes, calmly walk away.
5. If you are arrested, you have the right to ask why. Otherwise, say you wish to remain silent and ask for a lawyer immediately. Do not sign, say, or agree to anything without a lawyer present.
6. If you get stopped by military or law enforcement, you have a right to remain silent or tell them you will only answer questions in the presence of a lawyer/attorney, no matter your citizenship/immigration status.
To learn more, you can RSVP to an ACLU Know Your Rights training on the ACLU's website.A pin button on a dark grey t-shirt. The pin has a waving american flag, upside-down (as a symbol of distress) as the background. In bold black letters reads "I DISSENT" in all caps.

I got a book stamp yesterday and proceeded to stamp all of the books I've read so far and kept on my bookshelf. #booksky
Brown cardboard with two of the same stamp marked onto it, to test the ink. The stamp is of the lined-up spines of books. In a circle around the books' spines, the stamp reads "Traveling Witch Library" on the top and "Seal of Approval" on the bottom.

Protests are good, but there is still more to do. Legislation is in session. Call/email/mail your senators/reps. They may not notice 1 or 2 calls, but 100? 1000?! Call the sens/reps on the committees reviewing bills you don't agree with. Bury them in correspondences! Show up in person if you can.

I made Zines for the Hands Off! Protest. I printed 20 of each, but I wish I had printed more. I gave out all of them! See thread to read the pages. #handsoff2025 #handsoff #handsoffprotest
The cover of 2 small hand-made, scanned, and printed zines (short for magazines as made by common people and handed out). The title is the same for both: in a mix of red and blue letters, the title is Crease and Resist, a play on 'Cease and Desist'. The subtitle of the zine on the left reads "Assigned Reading DEI Version 1", and the subtitle of the zine on the right reads "Speak your Peace, FL Legislation 2025".

If you’re protesting this weekend, know your rights.
KNOW YOUR PROTEST RIGHTS:
1. You don't need a permit to protest in response to breaking news and you don't need a permit to march in the streets or along sidewalks, as long as you're not obstructing traffic or access to buildings.
2. When you are lawfully present in any public space, you have the right to photograph anything in plain view, including federal buildings and the police.
3. If you believe your rights have been violated, when you can, write down everything you remember, get contact information for witnesses, and take photographs of any injuries.
4. If you get stopped by the police, ask if you're free to go. If they say yes, calmly walk away.
5. If you get arrested, you have a right to ask why. Otherwise, say you wish to remain silent and ask for a lawyer immediately. Don't sign, say or agree to anything without a lawyer present.
6. If you get stopped by a member of the military or any law enforcement officer at a protest, you have the right to remain silent or to tell them that you'll only answer questions in the presence of an attorney - no matter your citizenship or immigration status.

Some light reading. #bannedbooks #booksky #reading #1984
A hand holds up the book 1984 by George Orwell. The cover is a minimalist design. The top half is white with 1984 in bold lettering, while faint text reads "war is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength", which is a refrain from the book. The bottom half is red with an orange box, in which there is a navy box with the author, George Orwell, written therein. Sticky tabs to mark certain passages stick out of the pages on the right. A bookmark of a tiny silcone pink mushroom peeks out of the top of the book.

Education is not seeking out only info that confirms your beliefs. Education is seeking out info for a multi-faceted view on a topic, and deciding only after you have seen different sides which one aligns with your beliefs... even when, especially when, your beliefs have changed through education.

The cover of the book The Library of the Unwritten, by A. J. Hackwith. The background looks like a white book page covered in fading text. A hole breaks through the center of the page as if something burst through the paper toward the viewer. A dark void is behind the page. An arm grips the left side of the hole, as if someone is planning to come through the hole into the real world. The subtitle reads, "Join the library. Raise Hell."

The cover of Inkheart, by Cornelia Funke. The cover is red with gold details. A smaller frame is set in the middle of the cover, like a window looking out onto a briar forest, a lake, a kingdom on fire and a distant mountain. A hand grips the edge of the frame as if to pull someone through the cover. A green lizard, a blue fairy, and a collection of gold coins, gemstones, bugs, and seashells are scattered around the frame.
