Supporting independent media never looked so good...

Need the perfect gift for a special rebel in your life? Something to wear to your next picket line, community garden, or just to start a conversation? Maybe you’d like some stickers to celebrate the spirit of resistance anywhere that could use a little change.

We’ve teamed up with Worx Printing, a non-profit, unionized co-op. Our graphics were hand painted and designed using open-source software by a Z Community member.

When you purchase any item, you are supporting the ideas and people behind these products. By showing off your new gear, you’re spreading the spirit of resistance.

Coming soon... the Free-Store!

We know that our items aren’t the cheapest and not everyone can afford the cost that comes with our values-aligned supply-chain and shop. Rather than compromise for cost, we decided to also make our designs available for free to everyone.

Coming soon: free hi-res downloads for the Z Community. Print them wherever you like, on whatever you like, however it works for you!

Organizing a Z-aligned event? We can send you some posters and zines to print & share.

DOES Z'S SURVIVAL MATTER?

You keep coming back for a reason: serious political analysis, movement reporting, and debate beyond the priorities of corporate media. Today, Z is in a precarious financial position. If Z is part of how you understand the world, help keep it going. The readers who give monthly are the reason this work survives between fundraisers.

CRITICAL ACTION

Critical Action is a longtime friend of Z and a music and storytelling project grounded in liberation, solidarity, and resistance to authoritarian power. Through music, narrative, and multimedia, the project engages the same political realities and movement traditions that guide and motivate Z’s work.

Z is in the most precarious financial position in its history.

Z is a place to think beyond the limits of the present.

For decades, Z has brought together political analysis, movement reporting, debate, and visions of a different future from writers and activists around the world. That work is more than journalism. It is movement infrastructure: movements need places to develop ideas, test arguments, learn from experience, and imagine what comes next.

In the first two days of this fundraiser, 19 donors and 8 new monthly sustainers stepped up. Help us reach 1,000 donors who keep Z independent, for everyone.

For decades, Z has published the analysis, debate, and visions movements need, free of paywalls, ads, and billionaire owners. If that work should continue, Z needs your support now.
