Description: Teacher's College graduate student and the author of the zine Freeze Dried Noodle constructed this zine to explore how zines can be tools for resistance. She includes excerpts from zines from the Barnard Zine Library written by Asian-American women about topics such as queer identity and Asian culture, white privilege, and the pitfalls of model minority status. She concludes that Asian American women use zines to build alliance, unearth racial complexities, and assert their personal voices.  The zine also contains a brief history of zine culture.
