︎︎︎          With what’s been going on in the world lately, this magazine feels more relevant than ever, yet long overdue. Around two years ago Tino Nyman, who is of a Roma background, persuaded Marina Veziko to make a magazine with him about Roma people in Finland. He had, for a long time, found that mainstream media presented Roma people in a very one-sided and tiresome way, and wanted to shake things up a bit. The idea grew and FEW was born – a magazine focusing on the most discriminated minorities in Finland.
              FEW acts as a peephole into the community through the eyes of different individuals. The aim is to create a space for the minorities to tell their stories; not to state any absolute truths, but to offer diverse perspectives and make people interested in discovering more about the subject. For future publications, our plan is to have a visiting editor for each issue. Someone who is within a specific culture would curate the whole issue with their vision of how to portray their culture.
              In FEW we believe that by presenting issues in a warm, beautiful, and respectable tone of voice that is a bit tongue-in-cheek, the message will hopefully resonate with a larger audience. Framing delicate, serious topics in a more approachable way is therefore important in furthering information reception and sparking new conversations.
