In 2022, I worked with a group of students to create a new space: Yente Zine. Yente aims to create a platform which combines the Jewish and Queer experience. We are divided into different teams: the event planners, the edition editors and the social media team. We featured in the Adidas Creative Debuts exhibition and have sold our copies at a range of Zine fairs.I oversaw the different teams throughout. I worked to organise learning events such as exploring radical identities with the artist Yael Robert at Oxford University. I also organised termly Friday night dinners in collaboration with the Oxford JSOC, with a guest speaker and over hundred guests each times. In addition, I helped to stock our Zines at different bookshops such as at the Pink Peacock Cafe in Glasgow and Pulp Fiction; I was in contact with different Zine fairs to ensure we would have stalls throughout the country. In 2022 I spoke on the Judaism Unbound Podcast about the meaning of radical identities in 2023. I organised a Zine fair in Oxford which was made up of over 15 Zines and Magazines. I interviewed the Jewish Museum of Vienna about the curation of an exhibition on relationships. I helped to edit the articles and contributed to the layout of the different zines and worked with logistics to distribute them when they were finished.
