Hello! 👁️🗺️

Our names are Ben and Mandy, and we’re reaching out to the disabled geoscience and community and its allies today with an announcement as well as an opportunity that we hope will interest you.

We’re organizing a zine on the theme of disability in geoscience (DiG). We hope that the project will do a lot of good for our community by bringing people together through sharing experiences with access, inaccessibility, stigma, and support.

We’re looking to bring at least two (2) more staff members on to the zine project to help us organize and moderate it. Possible mod activities include answering and sending emails, monitoring our Discord server, drafting posts, making graphics, attending weekly editorial meetings, generating review criteria, managing reviewers, and formatting drafts of the zine.

Our current project timeline goes through July 2025, the idea being that publication coincides with Disability Pride month next year.

If you are interested in learning more about us and/or this volunteer position, please provide us with some basic information about you through filling out this Google Form.

If you are interested in supporting the DiG Zine in general, you may follow us on Tumblr, X/Twitter, and/or Instagram. We also have a Discord set up that you can join via this invite link. If you would like to join the DiG listserv, DM us your email address.

Thank you for reading! We hope to see you in the DiG Zine community,

Mods Ben & Mandy ❤️

🪐❤️ Project Update👁️🗺️

Thank you to everyone who submitted your work already!

The submission deadline will be extended once more, to April 1, 2025, 11:59 PM CST. DiG’s submission form will remain open until then.

We ask for your patience and understanding as this project continues to unfold. This is our first time working on a zine and we are learning best practices as we go. 🙂

To be transparent with our audience, we are sharing our working schedule. Every month up to and including July, we’ll be working behind the scenes to complete a project phase that will bring us to publication in Disability Pride Month. We thought it made sense to leave late submissions open until we start rendering the second draft of this issue.

Please reach out if you need any help or have questions about contributing!

Happy creating! We hope to see your work!

🪐👁️ It’s here!! 🪐👁️

The inaugural issue of DiG is out in time for Disability Pride Month!

PDF files are available on the project's Tumblr in full color and greyscale, and various sizes. If you feel so inclined, print out a copy or two (or more!) and leave them wherever curious eyes may find them.

We hope that the artistic expressions and underrepresented voices captured by this issue and those to come will start overdue conversations about the disabled experience within the geosciences.

We see you, we stand with you, and we want to create together—both art and a more accessible, inclusive geoscience culture.
