ZINES ARE NOT A CRIME!

ABOUT DES

Des Revol—a tattoo artist, PoC anarchist, immigrant, and all-around sweetheart—is currently facing serious charges related to a larger case of political repression in Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas.

But Des isn’t just a victim of trumped-up political prosecution, he’s a beloved artist and friend who loves nothing more than experimenting with new vegan recipes, digging into new books, looking at baby opossums and sometimes fostering them, and spending time with loved ones. As a longtime vegan dedicated to animal liberation, solidarity with nonhumans shows up in much of Desʼs artwork, including through his playful depictions of raccoons, cats, and other critters. Des extends this deep solidarity outward: heʼs a loving brother, son, and friend; he’s a free-spirited dreamer who takes good care of everyone and everything around him.

Now stuck in a federal prison, Des is continuing to lend solidarity by drawing pictures for other inmates to send to their families.
