“Cup of Sugar” is a non-judgemental, intersectional, community focused, anti-fascist, anti-capitalist, anti-ableist, anti-racist, anti-sexist, anti-homophobic, anti-transphobic, anti-body shaming independently published zine.
The aim of this zine is to connect with our immediate neighbours to share skills and knowledge, build community resources, and cultivate creativity and joy.
This is not a space for selling things or services, but it is a space to ask for and offer help, share advice, connect, celebrate and grow together.
“the interconnected nature of social categorizations such as race, class, and gender as they apply to a given individual or group, regarded as creating overlapping and interdependent systems of discrimination or disadvantage.” (Oxford Languages)
In order for everyone to be given the same opportunities, we have to remove the systems that afford some of us an unfair and unearned privilege because of something such as our skin colour. To be able to do this, we have to acknowledge these privileges, and seek to remove the things that perpetuate the oppression of others in order to give us them.
This sort of work must be done by people in positions of governmental power to make lasting change, however I believe the only way this change will happen is through the voices of the people being governed, and to do that we need to truly connect with our most immediate neighbours, and build real community as a way to support each other, which is why I have created this zine!
Community requires some give and take from everyone, however it is not a direct trade. There will be some members of our community who are able to do more than others, and some who need more support than others. Even if you feel you are unable to contribute anything you deem to be tangible to others, you are still an important part of our community, and we want you here!
