Reading: “Mixed Up! A Zine About Mixed Race Queer & Feminist Experience”

Zine editors Lil Lefkowitz, Lee Naught & Lior and contributors to “Mixed Up!” invite you to the release of this long awaited zine about mixed race queer & feminist experience! Join us for cookies and soda, music from Tamar Boodaghians and Music Was My First Gay Lover, and readings from NYC-based contributors including Alex Kingsepp, Andrea Tsurumi, Chelsea Small, Mette Loulou von Kohl and Sabina Ibarrola. We’ll be discussing topics ranging from family and history, to body image and (not) passing, to queerness, community and so much more — and we’re delighted to invite you to join the conversation.
