Qwear Pride Zine 2025: Black Queer & Trans Futures
“Our gathering is our protection. Our creativity is our resistance. Our joy is our inheritance.” — Amir Dixon
For the first time in our 14-year history, Qwear is bringing our style revolution off the screen and into your hands. In a world that works to erase us, Qwear Pride Zine 2025: Black Queer & Trans Futures is our living, breathing proof that we are here, we are seen, and we are never hiding.
Created in collaboration with Amir Now and Amanda Shea, the team behind the documentary BLACK: Narratives on Black Queer and Trans History,” this 50-page love note centers the voices, style, and leadership of Black Queer and Trans creatives shaping culture today.
We feature two groundbreaking figures on its covers: Amanda Shea—cultural strategist, poet, producer, and queer style icon—graces the print edition, and Yasmin Benoit—global asexual activist and fashion powerhouse—fronts the digital. Two powerful forces shaping culture and advancing collective liberation.
“Pride can’t just be celebration. It has to be strategy. This zine is both,” says Amir Dixon, Creative Director of the Zine. “Our gathering is our protection. Our creativity is our resistance. Our joy is our inheritance.”
