Welcome to The REVIVAL Zine
• Feminist Publication & Community •
• HQ at UC Davis • Led by College Students •
As an intersectional feminist organization, REVIVAL encourages women, as well as all underrepresented students, to broaden their perspectives, share their thoughts, and use their voices. Not only do we empower feminists to share inclusive opinions regarding current events or social, political, cultural, and activist issues, but we also strive to give everyone the opportunity and community to express themselves while discussing their unique experiences.
Developed with support from the University of California National Center for Free Speech and Civic Engagement.
