NOTE: This project’s main purpose is being a fundraiser for the arts.

This is a collaborative DIY zine penned by five musicians from the hardcore and punk worlds and designed by five artists, all of whom are committed to social progress in the 21st century. From Trump and COVID to Black Lives Matter, culture wars and partisan politics, 2020 was arguably America’s most divisive and challenging year since 1968.

“2020: A ZINE” acts as a time capsule that honestly and passionately commits to paper the rollercoaster ride of emotions and events its authors experienced throughout the year, many of which resemble our own. Historically speaking, it’s important to preserve human stories—especially in the present, particularly in times of tragedy—so that we never forget what we endured and, most importantly, never let it happen again.

• Christina Michelle (Gouge Away)
