The company, which has joined the upcoming Generation Equality Forum, also announced its Chime for Change campaign’s grantees for 2021.
MILAN — Building on its commitment to support and promote gender equality through its Chime for Change campaign launched in 2013 in collaboration with Beyoncé Knowles-Carter and Salma Hayek Pinault, Gucci released the latest issue of its Chime Zine on Tuesday.
The latest iteration of the project focuses on women-led movements around the world, ranging from Women’s Strike in Poland to the feminist art and comic scene in Italy.
Edited by community organizer and writer Adam Eli and art directed by Italian visual artist MP5, the zine also includes essays, interviews and artwork on topics including the importance of visual symbols in social movements; upholding the tradition of resistance in Egypt for a new generation; how women and marginalized groups powered Nigeria’s #EndSARS movement; the need for global attention to the epidemic of femicide in Turkey; confronting the stigma around sexual violence; and the importance of preserving the history of the radical queer feminist zine culture of the 1990s and 2000s in the digital age.
