Issue #3 of Gen M

Gen M (short for "Generation Migrant") is a zine made by the New Zealand-based Migrant Zine Collective, documenting the personal experiences of migrants of colour in Aotearoa (New Zealand).

Issues

  • Issue 1 led to the creation of the Migrant Zine Collective. Self-published by Helen Yeung, it celebrated her Hong Kong-Chinese diasporic background, along with the personal stories of migrant youth in Tāmaki Makaurau (Auckland). Read online
  • Issue 2 was collated by Yeung in collaboration with Alice Canton’s award-winning theatre show OTHER [chinese] - a large-scale community engagement project which investigated the complexity of Chinese identity in contemporary Aotearoa, examining the everyday lives, rituals, historical events, and memories of Chinese people in diaspora. Its Chinese title “移民一族,” roughly translates to “the people of migration”. Read online
  • Issue 3 (pictured) explores the theme of migration through the lens of feminism and diaspora, and was made in collaboration with Auckland Central City Library’s Makerspace, through a community zine workshop. Read online
