Rock, Paper, Ballot! A Midterm Zine-Making Workshop With the 2026 midterm elections around the corner, join Shadowbanned Magazine for a hands-on zine-making workshop focused on voter education and political literacy. We'll start with a brief introduction to the history of zines and their role in political education and grassroots organizing. Then, participants will create their own 8-page zine on their laptops with our zine maker tool, exploring topics like voting rights, what's on the ballot, candidate comparisons, or helpful resources for voters. We'll have a printer on-site so everyone can print their finished zines, take them home, and share them with their communities. No design experience necessary! Just bring your laptop and your curiosity. All materials and printing will be provided.

Shadowbanned Cultural Workers Lab presents our next event: Our Images Under Imperialism (2026) This time, we’re working with @kashi.archive, who has curated a pop-up exhibition exploring how our images move through the internet, and presenting a lecture on e-colonialism with @hannahhcha. We’ll kick things off with a lecture from Kashi and Hannah, followed by an opportunity to explore the exhibition and its interactive works, such as "net.timeline" by @h4nnahdaniela. Come think about what happens to our images once they enter the internet: who controls them, how they’re circulated, and what happens when our lives become data, content, and commodities. Light refreshments will be available. Complimentary zine!
