This is exposures on Impact 89 FM. W DBM East Lansing. The show that lets you know about everything that goes on at the MSU campus that you otherwise might not know about. Tune in every Sunday at 9 AM. I'm your host, Tessa Creusch.
Tessa Kresch:Welcome to Exposure. Hello. Hello. And welcome back to Exposure. You are listening to season 14.
Tessa Kresch:I'm your host, Tessa Creusch. Today, I'm here with a few members of the student organization Culture Magazine. The aim of this student organization is to showcase diverse cultural fashion and allow members to creatively express their various talents through a variety of media. Thank you guys so much for joining me today.
Jolene:Thank you so much for having us.
Maria:Yeah. Thanks for having us.
Tessa Kresch:Of course. So could you start by introducing yourself? So your name, major, year, and your connection with culture?
Maria:Yeah. So I'm Maria. I'm a junior at Michigan State majoring in neuroscience and psychology, and I'm the president and coeditor in chief of Culture Magazine.
Jolene:Yeah. I'm Jolene, and I'm a finance major as well as doing a minor in French, and I'm also a cofounder and coeditor in chief at Culture Magazine.
Tessa Kresch:Okay. You guys are the founders. Before we get into everything, could you explain how we know each other and how you started this organization?
Jolene:Yeah. So I can, I guess, start us off with, you know, how we kind of met our background story? So during our freshman year, which was in 2021, Maria and I met in one of our ISS classes. And since then, we kinda just, you know, had similar interests on topics that we used to kinda discuss. So that's how we kinda became closer.
Jolene:And culture, the idea came about around last year in June, but I can also let Maria add on to that too.
Maria:Yeah. So as Jolene said, we met our freshman year, and we just had similar interest when it came to fashion and culture and just just learning about different identities, and we've always just loved fashion. So we wanted to come together and make Culture Magazine because we just didn't feel like we had a place on campus where we felt represented to show our home cultural fashion that wasn't centered on the west, on western fashion and ideals. So we wanted to make Culture Magazine to provide others that space and also a space for ourselves.
Tessa Kresch:Yeah. Absolutely. So quick icebreaker question. If you were to wear one outfit for the rest of your life, like your uniform, what would it be?
Jolene:Okay. Oh, that is a very good question. Now that I actually, you know, think about it, I think the one thing specifically, I guess, I do I'm a person who does love overalls or, you know, anything kinda like a romper or jumpsuit. Uh-huh. So maybe something similar to that because, you know, it's just easy to kinda put it on, and that's it.
Jolene:You don't need to think about it top and bottom. Exactly.
Tessa Kresch:That makes sense.
Jolene:That'll be my That's a good piece.
Maria:Mhmm. That's a good one, Jolene. That's honestly a power move. I could see where that
Tessa Kresch:would be as well.
Maria:The question is hard, but I just love my long skirts and my little tops. I find those so cute.
Tessa Kresch:Yes.
Maria:And I can accessorize so much with them. So I would I would, like, just have my little my little tops with, like, my long flowy skirts. I can see myself live in those forever.
Tessa Kresch:I know I was challenging you with that question because you guys are fashion icons. So we were talking about culture that's very important to you. Could you tell me about your own cultural identity?
Jolene:Yeah. So I can start us off. So for me, I was born here, but my family is originally from Malawi. So we're Malawian, and I grew up spent most of my life in Kenya.
Maria:Mhmm.
Jolene:So I've kind of had this, you know, multicultural experience, but I would say mainly when it comes to, you know, when I think of my culture and kinda where that leads to, you know, when it comes to fashion as well, I mainly identify with, like, more I would say mainly, like, sub Saharan Africa type deal. But, yeah, mainly from there. Those are my cultures, like Kenya and Malawi.
Maria:I would say for me, I've lived majority of my life in the States, and I identify as Arab American. I'm Lebanese. And I would say that my, like, cultural lens and my identity comes from living in the states, but also heavily from my cultural influence of being Lebanese as well.
Tessa Kresch:And how would you say your culture is portrayed in fashion and clothes?
Jolene:Yeah. So I guess mainly, I would say with more of, like, the colors and in terms of, like, African prints as well. I feel like that's something that is very visible or known to many people, I think, when you kinda see the colors, the different motifs, and the pieces that are, put together. But in clothing, it's mainly the prints that you see. And not mainly, there will be different types of styles as well, of course, when it comes to the different countries in the continent, but I would just say mainly more, like, African prints that pertain to each country.
Jolene:So it varies country to country, but, like, the colors, you know, the different designs that are on them that tell stories and things like that. So mainly that.
Maria:I would say when it comes to Arab culture, when it in the in the media, I don't when it comes to Western fashion, at least here in the States, I don't see a lot of, like, Arab fashion influences. But one thing about in the Middle East, common, like, fashion that's represented and shown, I would say that a lot of gold jewelry we wear a lot of gold jewelry, and people just love gold jewelry. That's something that is commonly shown. Also, we have a lot of specific, like, cultural styles and, like, types of clothing and also a lot of, like, specific not even just with clothing, but even when it comes to makeup. Like, there's just specific types of, like, makeup and styles and jewelry that I personally associate with Arab culture.
Tessa Kresch:So I know I gave a little bit of a description of what Culture Magazine is, but could you elaborate on it and why it's important to you?
Jolene:I think with culture in general, as you said, it really is just a space for, you know, people to come to explore different cultural fashion styles, designs, and even just the idea of culture within itself and how that kind of associates with fashion. And, you know, we do that through our magazine, which is something that we do try to put out yearly. This is our 1st year starting it, so we will be having our release hopefully by the end of the semester. But, yeah, through that, we're able to, you know, have people, you know, express themselves through written articles, whether that's even modeling, you know, just different things where we're able to just explore more, learn more about different cultures, and also just express that. Because as Maria said earlier, you know, we really wanna emphasize, you know, that there is more out there than Western fashion and ideals.
Jolene:And, you know, there's a variety of it, and we want people to kinda just know more about that.
Maria:And just building off what Jolene was saying, our goal is to represent all cultures, identities, beliefs, opinions on campus. And so we just want to be the bridge for you to be able to do that. If there's a certain type of fashion that you wanna represent or idea or concept, we just wanna be able to be to showcase that for you. We we're just kind of our like, the bridge. That's just our job.
Maria:I I see us as Culture Magazine.
Tessa Kresch:What do you think sets you guys apart from other magazines on campus?
Maria:I would definitely see our emphasis on representing all cultures on campus and identities, beliefs, just as I was saying before. I know there are other fashion magazine clubs on campus, but I don't I believe that Culture Magazine is the only one that showcases a variety of different cultures, and we make sure to represent all identities. We're not focused on a specific identity. We're we're focused on representing everyone.
Tessa Kresch:You guys just started this organization this year. What was that like? How did you get members?
Jolene:Yeah. It was definitely a difficult process to begin with. We did start, you know, the initial phases of coming up the coming up with the idea in March of last year, and, of course, getting that idea across to multiple people who we thought would be great a great addition to our board because we needed at least a couple of members before you actually come to establishing, yourself as an organization on campus. So that, you know, took a bit of time, I think, probably around, like, 2 months of, like, you know, initial, like, looking for people, actually going physically to discuss the idea with them, you know, creating, like, a presentation so they can physically see who we want to be and how we kinda just wanna be as an organization. And, yeah, I think that was pretty much the main process when it comes to, like, the physical things of putting ourselves together.
Jolene:And after that, I think it's just been it's also still been difficult, I think, you know, with advertising as well. But we've been able to, you know, bring people together with our first meetings, general board meetings last year beginning September. So it was great to just see that come together.
Tessa Kresch:I wanna talk a little bit about this magazine. You intend on having your first one come out this year. Can you talk a little bit about it?
Maria:So our magazine, we're planning on releasing at the end of the semester, which is super exciting. I'm very excited for that. And we have we've reached out to different organizations and RSOs on campus to be a part of our magazine along with having an interest form for students to write their own column or us to help them put together a concept piece. And so we've interviewed different organizations. We have photos from different RSOs on campus, and we also have specific students' experiences in our magazine.
Maria:So our goal is just to represent how students on at MSU feel about culture and representing their own culture. Because the theme for our first magazine is culture at MSU. So we wanna be able to showcase a variety of experiences that students have had and how they've represented their culture.
Jolene:Yeah. Definitely. So far, it's been great to, you know, meet with the different RSOs on campus that, you know, express culture in different ways. And, you know, just, again, exploring that idea of culture not only being, you know, something like an identity, but even how that's even, like, represented within, like, fashion, specifically clothing, or even just like an idea or theme or, like, different, like, groups. So it's just been great to get to know different RSOs and just, you know, have them just, you know, speak through our magazine too in a way.
Tessa Kresch:Can I ask you to shout out some of those RSOs that you're collaborating with?
Maria:Yeah. So we've already reached out to APASA, which is the Asian Pacific Islander club on campus. Yeah. They have an event called Cultural Vogue, so we're helping represent and showcase that. We've also reached out to Timzeremug, which is a global indigenous club.
Maria:So we have a they have a piece that's coming in our magazine, which is super exciting. And even another organization that was super fun to talk to was the salsa club.
Tessa Kresch:Cool.
Maria:I'm excited for that one. They, like, talked about dance and how they use that for identity, which is super cool.
Tessa Kresch:And have you had any events with these partners?
Jolene:We did have a yes. We did. We did have a cultural celebration. It did take me a while to think about, but last year we had it was a beautiful event. You know?
Jolene:It was just a cultural celebration. We had people, you know, that day dress up in whatever their cultural, fashion was. And even if it was just to come in, if they didn't have any clothing particularly, coming in to just have, like, a professional photo taken, you know, we had some people perform. Specifically, we had a dancer, Anisha. Like, a shout out to her.
Jolene:She was great. You know? She was just she was doing, I think, just a Bollywood kinda dance, which is really great for people to just see that and, yeah, just people sharing what their cultural fashion means to them as well. We did take a couple videos of that, which was just great.
Maria:Yeah. The cultural photo day event was super fun. That was in collaboration with Dim Zaliman, which was the organization that we that we also are gonna have in our magazine.
Tessa Kresch:Awesome. We mentioned the final product of the magazine. I imagine that there's a bunch of committees that work together to create this. Can you elaborate on those?
Jolene:Yeah. So we do have a couple of committees within our organization. We have a writing committee, modeling, design
Maria:Media. Media.
Jolene:Yes. Events. So we do have a lot that goes into, you know, making culture what it is and also in terms of our magazine. And, you know, to join each committee, it is just, you know, filling out a form, seeing, you know, whether you're a fit in terms of, you know, what is it that you'd like to be involved in with, you know, each aspect and what are the things that you'd like to help with producing the magazine. And we have forms like that, and then people are able to share some of their experiences they've had.
Jolene:And, you know, essentially, that just works with each commit like, committee leader, which is one of our eboard members, heading those teams and just, you know, guiding individuals to, you know, what they wanna do and what they wanna help with being a part of the magazine.
Tessa Kresch:Are you guys a part of these committees?
Maria:Yeah. We are. So I'm a head of the media committee, which has everything to do with, like, our media, which is with our website, our Instagram
Tessa Kresch:Mhmm.
Maria:Bringing all of that together, showcasing what we want online. And then I know Jolene's also ahead of a committee.
Jolene:Yeah. I'm I
Tessa Kresch:just want Mhmm. Real quick to commend you for that Instagram because it is beautiful. You do a really good job. Of course. The Instagram is beautiful, and thanks to, you know, Maria and also our design team members who, you know,
Jolene:create a lot of the designs. And some of our Fashion Fuel Fridays have been, you know, kind of put together by our design team as well. So it's just been great to, you know, have committees work together as well. Usually, we have media and design working hand in hand, which is just it's great to see that. But, yeah, I'm also, I guess, in charge of the modeling committee.
Maria:Oh. So yeah. Does that make
Tessa Kresch:you a model?
Jolene:Not necessarily, but I feel like it's been great, you know, in general. I didn't expect to be heading this committee, but, you know, it's been great to, you know, have a lot of people come in with a lot of passion. I think a lot of the forms I get are people who are like, you know, I would love the experience. I've always wanted to do this. And modeling is for everyone, anyone.
Jolene:You know? There isn't a certain look or anything. So I think it's just it's great to just, you know, have different people who have passion for that. And, you know, putting on our first cover was also just great to see with our photographer who came in, and we were able to take that with, you know, a couple of our models from our modeling committees.
Tessa Kresch:I'm sure that's really nice for people as well to be able to model their own culture. Yeah. That's awesome. So I know a big thing a big value for your organization is inclusion. Could you touch on that a little bit?
Maria:Yeah. For sure. So our goal, as I mentioned earlier, is to be able to represent all cultures on campus, all identities. We are not specific to a specific group. Our goal is to help represent everyone.
Maria:And so the way that we try to do this is to listen to other students and listen to their own opinions and their own values and to see how we can listen and understand their opinions and be able to showcase that.
Jolene:Yeah. I think it really is just, you know, giving people the space to do, you know, what they wanna do and also what they wanna share and just us being there to listen and also being there to, you know, just kinda give them a platform to do just that. So I think definitely with when it comes to inclusion, everyone is welcome. All ideas are welcome. You know?
Jolene:And just having people share that piece is incredible. Yeah.
Tessa Kresch:Can you walk me through what a week would look like as part of Culture Magazine?
Jolene:Usually, we do have our meetings, like, biweekly, but we also have other week? Yeah. Every other week, and our eboard meetings every other week. But usually our magazine, you know, kind of working, you know, working on the magazine is out at, like, behind the scenes mainly most of the time because we do have when we do have our board meetings, we do do we do discuss, you know, things to do with our club and our club meetings and also things to do with our magazine. So you'd have the design team kind of working behind the scenes, putting that together, our writing committee going out, you know, doing interviews with different RSOs, trying to get that together, you know, us contacting different people for events and things like that.
Jolene:So it is a lot of behind the scenes. And then when it when we do meet with each other during our club meetings, that's when it's more, you know, coming together and just discussing the different themes and topics that, you know, culture really wants to share.
Maria:I would also say a week with Culture Magazine is how much you wanna make of it. Like, if you're interested in doing design, there's a bunch of cool things you can design. And if you're interested in doing photography, there's a bunch of cool things you can do. So it's whatever your interest is is what your how your week would kind of look like.
Tessa Kresch:And where do you guys meet and when? So we meet at the Union
Maria:in the Lake Erie room every other Tuesday from 6 to 7 PM. And
Tessa Kresch:what about events? What is upcoming? What have you had recently?
Maria:Yeah. So last semester, we had a lot of super cool and fun events. We did talk about the cultural photo day. That was a really fun event that we had. We have also had, like, a couple different socials.
Maria:So we had, like, a social last semester that was, like, a knitting social where people could come learn how to knit from other people who were more experienced and just have a good time and get to know other people?
Jolene:Yeah. We had a Friendsgiving, I think, potluck as well kinda during that time to bring people together. And I think even just today, one of our one of our greatest fundraisers, I think, for this semester so far, was just our Valentine's fundraiser and happened today, 3 to 6. And it was just great to have people just come in, take photos with, you know, loved ones, friends, you know, self love, like, all of that. So people are just able to come in, have their photos taken professionally done.
Jolene:So
Tessa Kresch:Yeah. What do you have upcoming? Do you have any events that people can look forward to?
Maria:Yeah. So we're planning a cultural fashion show, which is super exciting, and I'm really looking forward to that. Right. For people to showcase their cultural fashion and just not just fashion, but anything that they're interested in. We're hoping to do more than just fashion.
Maria:Maybe people wanna showcase, like like like dancing or singing, stuff like that. I know Jolene can talk a little bit about our cultural market that we're thinking of.
Jolene:Yeah. We're definitely also planning to bring that up again. We did have the idea last semester. It was just kind of difficult to you know, with starting the club and, you know, putting on events as well, that is something we're still trying to learn to figure out how to balance. But, our cultural mark market where we can, you know, bring in different people who wanna just sell some of their whether, like, lightly used items or even just thrifted things, just kind of being able to sell that.
Jolene:And people can also bring in their own, you know, artwork. Anything that, you know, basically you can sell, people are able to do that, and it'll just be great for people to just be able to present their work, any entrepreneurs, things like that. So that's something we do wanna bring again hopefully this semester as well. Yeah.
Tessa Kresch:How many people are involved in the organization right now?
Maria:I would say around 30 people. We'd have around, like we have around, like, 30 members are, like, involved, and they're in committees, or they come to our meetings.
Tessa Kresch:That must feel really rewarding to know that you guys built this from the ground up. Do you have any goals for the organization in the near future and even far future?
Maria:Honestly, I do have a lot of goals for culture. I really hope that we can expand more and just be able to showcase more students' voices and just be that bridge for students on campus. I also hope we can have more events. Like, we have some events that we're planning in the future. And, for example, we're planning a cultural fashion show, and I'd love that to be a consistent annual event that we could do.
Maria:Also, our magazine is is annual. I think it'd be super cool if we could do it more often so we can showcase more voices and be able to do that more frequently.
Jolene:Yeah. That was definitely one of mine as well, just, you know, having our magazine be more on a consistent basis as well. But it's great to even just, you know, start actually bringing 1, our first one. And I think another thing another goal that I would say I have would just be when it comes to, like, you know, expanding culture and, like, bringing in more voices, but even being able to just I I feel like being able to, you know, make our magazine, you know, more established even on social media and even our website, I feel like that's something I really do want us to develop really well so that we can also not just, you know, have it shared just here, but I think even I'm I I don't wanna say global just yet, but, you know, I think MSU has a beautiful campus. You know, many people involved in even just our Lansing community.
Jolene:I think culture really just wants to develop that and bring more people and being able to showcase that to other people outside. So that's one of the goals.
Tessa Kresch:Would you say that showcasing people's cultural identities brings the campus closer together?
Jolene:Yeah. It definitely does. I feel like, you know, as you just said, bringing people closer together when people are able to, you know, again, guess get past you know, maybe there's some things that people I feel like okay. So when people are able to share their, you know, cultural cultural identities or even just their cultural fashion and things like that, you know, those are things I feel that kind of I wouldn't say, like, vulnerable, but I feel like you're able to just open up in a way that's kind of different because it is a part of you. It's a part of your identity.
Jolene:And when you're able to share that with other people, I think it just creates that space where people are able to feel free and, you know, people are able to appreciate one another. And there's this sort of a celebration and appreciation of each other and our differences. So it's just a way to, you know, bring people together, create a community where people can acknowledge differences and just celebrate that.
Tessa Kresch:How would you say that being a part of culture has enriched your life and your time at MSU?
Maria:I would definitely say Culture Magazine has been one of the peaks of my time at MSU. Being able to create something from the ground up has honestly been very rewarding. I've never done something like this before, and just being able to do it with so many like minded people who also have a goal of representing different identities and cultural fashion on campus has just been a great experience. I will say it's also very satisfying to see where culture has been and to see where where where we'll be where we will get to one day. I just love seeing the progress throughout the club.
Jolene:Yeah. Exactly that. I think it's just great to see when we have different, you know, individuals from all over campus. People you know, we probably would have never met if it wasn't for, you know, this idea that people are able to come in and they have the same interests and the same goals that they want for themselves to, you know, be a part of this, you know, I guess our own mini community, which also is growing. So it's just great to have people come in to, you know, for culture and to do things for culture.
Tessa Kresch:What would you say your favorite memory pertaining to the organization is?
Maria:Oh, I like this question. I would definitely say one of my favorite memories was when we finalized our front cover. That was super fun because it was really cool to see everything come together. I wasn't able to go to the front cover shoot, but it was really cool seeing all of the videos that were made, the behind the scenes of the shoot, and also all of our models come together, all of the background, all of that. And then just, like, finalizing all of the edits, putting and putting it together, it was just very rewarding, and it was just a very surreal thing to see.
Tessa Kresch:Can I ask what the front cover looks like, or is that a surprise that I have to wait for?
Maria:Believe that as a surprise. Oh, that's strange.
Jolene:I can't say. Oh my goodness. Okay. Okay. Just give me an expected month.
Jolene:We are hoping for April, I believe. Like, beginning of April because we are trying to get everything done, into our design committee by March? Yeah. By March. Yes.
Tessa Kresch:Okay. And if I want to get my hands on it immediately, where do I have to go?
Maria:Our website. You can you can find our magazine on our website also on our Instagram. We'll have everything posted on how to access it there.
Jolene:What's your website again? So that is app, app, dot culturemagazine.com.
Tessa Kresch:So And culture spelled c u l t r. Right? And what's your favorite memory?
Jolene:Yeah. I would say my favorite memory was definitely one of our meetings, which was on representation in media. I think just some of the activities where we were able to have, you know, discussions and, like, hearing different people who came to our meeting just, you know, discuss on the things and also hear different opinions, and people still being able to, you know, still get along and, you know, people like hearing differences in opinions and things like that where people were still able to get along, understand each other was just a great experience. And, you know, doing some of the fun activities where we took some Polaroids and, yeah, it was just a really fun meeting for me, and it was just great to actually see that, wow. Like, this is, like, one of our first meetings, and people are coming to this, and people actually like this idea.
Tessa Kresch:Yeah. That seems like a really powerful discussion. And all your meetings are pretty discussion based. Right? Yeah.
Tessa Kresch:What are some other examples of conversations that you've had at meetings?
Maria:We had a meeting that I really enjoyed. It was on sustainability and fashion, and we partnered with the MSU Recycling Center. And we talked a little bit about sustainability and fashion, what that means to you, your thoughts on that, and then going and then we also had, like, a junk journaling activity where we used supplies from the recycling center to make little fashion journals. So we just had a discussion on everyone's thoughts on that and then also just, like, came together and showed our, like, little masterpieces to each other.
Tessa Kresch:This sounds like a perfect mix of fun and educational.
Jolene:Yes. That's I guess, I feel like that's the best way to describe what culture is. You know? It's bringing that learning and, you know, going through these important topics, representation in media, sustainability in fashion, even just entrepreneurship, things like that. We've had topics like that, have people come in for that, but also the fun activities and actually putting that into practice.
Tessa Kresch:Yeah. Were there any other discussions that you wanna highlight?
Maria:Yeah. So our first meeting of this semester actually was on the culture of hair, and that meeting was super fun. We talked about different how what hair symbolizes for different cultures and what that means for other people, but we also had some really fun activities. So we had, like, a hair porosity test where people could, like
Tessa Kresch:Was that with a cup and water?
Maria:Yeah. We, like, had people, like, check what their hair porosity was, and then people talk about, like, hairstyles they wanna do. And people some people even, like, pulled up their Pinterest boards. Like, it was super fun.
Tessa Kresch:Can I ask what other cultures are highlighted within the organization? What can one expect from the magazine?
Jolene:Oh, okay. That's a good question. I think as we kinda discussed, like, you know, more and more what culture can mean to many people and what it actually means, like, there's a variety of, you know, connotations to it. But, of course, definitely more, like, cultural when it comes to, like, cultural identities with ethnicities, I think we can see that with, like, Timid Salomit. And I think with I think we also did have some articles of, you know, just, yeah, more of that base, I think, with Amber's article as well, which is kind of more on I think, Marie, you have more on that?
Jolene:Emphasis on
Maria:like, South Asian culture. Yeah. Our goal is just to represent, like, all identities and cultures. And the way that we've been doing it for this magazine is just talking with our, like, RSOs and student opinions. But when it comes to specific cultures, we don't necessarily focus on one thing.
Maria:Our goal is just to help represent everyone, and we wanna try. We've reached out to a variety. We've reached like, we like Jolene will tell you, we've reached out to, like, hundreds of organizations. Like, our goal is to talk to so many different identities, and that isn't just racial and ethnic identities. Like, we've reached out to the skate club.
Maria:Like, we have some cool stuff coming up with them soon. Like, it's just all identities on campus.
Tessa Kresch:Yeah. I'm curious. Like, someone who belongs to a culture, but fashion isn't really, like, a strong thing in it. There's no, like, very specific elements of clothing that screams that culture. I'm wondering, how do you integrate that within it?
Jolene:I think that would be more of, you know, where our writing committee and, like, that when it comes to, like, the articles and things like that. I think that's where that would be, you know, brought in. I think even with, you know, mentioning the salsa club, of course, like, you know, the the you know, salsa within itself, it is like, you know, a culture with muse with the music, the dance itself, and also just kind of, you know, that like, the salsa club, here on campus. We weren't necessarily able to get, you know, the fashion aspect of it, But, you know, just even hearing and talking to the different instructors who were kinda instructing on that day was just great because, you know, they really described kind of some of the roots of it in a sense and also just more about kind of the culture altogether, if that kind of makes sense.
Tessa Kresch:Alright. So we know that you have a website. Can we talk about your Instagram? Where can people find that?
Maria:So our Instagram is culture, c u l t r, underscore magazine.
