The making and distribution of ‘zines’ in the latter 20th century was bound up with voices of resistance and disruption, notably the civil rights, punk and feminist movements (Zobl, 2009). This analogue form of expression is enjoying a post-digital resurgence and after a productive and thought-provoking session last year at UCLAN, Team Zine is developing a session in line with this year’s conference themes. In our post-colonial world, we look to challenge historical strategies for generating ‘legitimate’ knowledge as mechanisms for the reproduction of political power (Foucault, 1969/2002; hooks, 1984). Drawing on a social justice approach and the concept of pedagogy as public criminology (Sexton, 2020), we consider who the work we do is for, who it serves, and how we can use creative work to transform our education settings and communities of practice (Henderson, 2020; hooks, 1984). Through zine-making we move towards knowledge equity by offering a space and platform for previously minoritised voices. Breaking free from the constraints of academic work - which remains broadly inaccessible both to criminal justice practitioners and those absorbed into the criminal justice system – we communicate our learning, knowledge, experience and ideas in an inclusive and accessible format.
