The zine, which was launched March 26, is an anthology of international participation in Yiddish culture: a 71-page collection of 26 essays, poetry, art and even a comic. @yiddishistke @SChiritescu @SarahBiskowitz @c_o_bernstein @MikhlDarling @EmilyMazza17
Zines are limited-run, self-produced magazines associated with punk rock, pieced together with poetry, art, a copy machine and an anarchistic attitude. A new Yiddish zine called 'Heymish: A Zine about Home' brings that punk rock spirit to the mame-loshn. forward.com/forverts-in-engl…

To support the variety of ways we've seen folks so wonderfully bring the Heymish zine into the Yiddish classroom, or anyone who wants to print a copy (but lack a massive color ink budget), we've added a color stripped print friendlier edition to our site: yiddishistke.com/heymish-zin…
Check out our new zine Heymish! It contains 26 Yiddish language submissions, including stories, poetry, and visual art (some with English translations), from a diverse, multigenerational, and global array of Yiddishists. yiddishistke.com/heymish-zin…
