Evolution of a Race Riot were two compilation zines and a third reference zine listing projects, zines, and resources for people of color who were/are involved in punk rock and punk culture. Race Riots are also considered legacy zines.
Compiled by Mimi Nguyen, these zines were thick and contained writings from a diverse roster of activists, writers and artists who addressed issues of racism in punk culture, invisibility, class issues, and the ever popular (and offensive) "I don't see you as (asian/black/latino/etc.)."
While this is no longer published, it is a crucial and critical document for POC involved in the subcultural terrain of DIY publishing, music, art, and culture. There has been nothing comparable since this was compiled and published.
Evolution of a Race Riot was one of the featured titles in Copy Machine Manifesto, the 2023-2024 exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum of artist-made zines.
