Migrant Zine Collective

Issue #3 of Gen M

Migrant Zine Collective is an activist-based group aiming to amplify, celebrate and share the voices of migrants of colour in Aotearoa (New Zealand).

The collective was founded in 2017, when it released GEN M (short for “Generation Migrant”), a zine collated and self-published by founding member Helen Yeung, in the hopes of celebrating her Hong Kong-Chinese diasporic background, along with the personal stories of other migrant youth in Tāmaki Makaurau (Auckland).

Collective members

Those currently part of the collactive indlude Helen Yeung, as well as Eda Tang, Sammie Lee and Abigail Dell’Avo. Past members include Sopanha Kham, Ivanova Anjani and Jasmin Singh.
