Title: At the base of the mountain
Description: This perzine combines the study of racial difference with the personal narrative of Bella, a half-white, half-Colombian girl living in Utah. She describes her confusion at being treated as an "other" on census reports, in groups of color, and in her own white family. Bella goes on to make the connection that "othering," as she calls it, draws attention to the individual as not normal, therefore justifying white privilege over them. She also includes hand drawn images of cats and puppies to break up the text.
