Hey, friends, here's the zine we handed out at the Democratize Yale teach-in on 9/1. Check it out and share with your pals at Yale! 🧵

Cover of a zine that says "Welcome to Yale! A University Without Democracy." The image on the cover shows protestors from various generations of Yale students standing in front of the iconic lipstick sculpture that used to stand in Yale's Beineke Plaza. Words "Democratize Yale" under the graphic.
