#soofthefloof

17. Soofiya (@soofiya) - I first noticed Soofiya's artwork at @burntrotimag's 'Beauty Of Being British Asian' exhibition. Seeing artwork celebrate brownness and hairiness was an entirely new experience for me and I had to seek out more. Now I own several of Soofiya's zines and I've also visited #soofthefloof. There is something in their work that really resonates with me. Keep making awesome things, Soofiya! #soofiya #existenceisresistance #fightthegoodfight #poc #effyourbeautystandards #artforall #learnbeyondthenorm #bemoreyou #knowwhoweare #januarycalltoaction https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsvu7ywABNh/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=xpa1f4wo45p6

A few weekends ago, I ventured to @housmans_books to pick up this zine by @soofiya. I found out about @soofiya at @burntrotimag's 'Beauty of British Asian' exhibition and I fell in love with their work. Auntie Fatima was a must have. I don't have any lefty aunts but I do have one hell of a lefty mother. She's always fought the good fight - on the street, at work and at home. She's my political foundation: anti-fascist and proud. Whether I've marched for nuclear disarmament or mouthed off at EDL members, mum's been at the heart of it. #antifascist #leftydesi #soofthefloof #britishasian #zines #auntiefatima #fightthegoodfight #existenceisresistance #housmans #radicalbooks #browngirl #browngirlbloggers
