Black Aliveness Notes are zines that share the frame-
works, practices, and reflections that evolve from UBUNTU
Research and Evaluation’s work toward liberation. A zine,
short for magazine, is a self-published, independent, and
accessible form of storytelling that resists the confines of
academic or institutional publishing. Zines have long been
tools of political education, cultural preservation, and rad-
ical imagination within Black-led resistance movements,
from the liberation presses of the 1960s to contemporary
grassroots organizing.
