Yes, Virginia, there is ICE here too


Biscuit #2, by Amanda Wyatt Visconti

Yes, Virginia, there is ICE here too (Zine Bakery Biscuit #2) is an 8-page, black-and-white minizine explaining how immigration rules and rhetoric impact Charottesville folks even though we’re in the middle of a state, far away from federal borders—and resources for supporting us and our neighbors vs. racist rhetoric and unjust laws. I also created a Photoshop template so folks can make your own localized version.

Details:

  • Licensing:
    • CC 0. No credit needed. Please do freely remix, edit, make copies, hand out.
    • The Photoshop template aiding you in remixing the zine for your own locality is CC-SA: SA means “share alike”, meaning you need to put a CC-SA license on the zine you create from that template, so that other folks can remix your zine too.
  • Do note I’m not an expert; none of this is intended as legal advice; this zine was not written at work and does not represent the views of my employer.
  • Current version: v1, 01/19/2025.

Available now:

  • PDF of zine suitable for printing in black-and-white.
  • Online readable version, below (under “Read the zine online” section header)
  • Make your own! Use this Photoshop template from my zine, and edit wherever there’s a # noting you need to change something (or wherever else you want to edit, too). I took out info specific to my experience or my city (Charlottesville). I edited the back cover’s license and contextual info—you’ll need to use a CC-SA license so others can remix your work, too, if you use this template.

Coming soon:

  • Zine Bakery catalogue entry for this zine containing blurb, descriptive metadata, etc.

Read the zine online

The zine has a version formatted for printing above, but below are the zine’s pages in order, in case you prefer to read online. (The PDF is a standard one-sheet minizine format, so it’s difficult to read online without rotating and understanding how folding will impact page order. Below is easiest unless you’re going to print the zine out and fold it before reading.)
