Equity would need to be explained for the first meme to work. I doubt they'd know what that means.

Out of context the second meme will prob just confuse (white) people that haven't had to put up with those sealioning types. I'm assuming the target audience is fairly privileged white people judging by one of your recent posts. It would need to be accompanied by a write up explaining the whiteness-sealioning phenomenon. Maybe the original sealioning comic would help too.

The third meme is helpful in setting up 'apolitical' privilege, but would still need accompanying text to explain in more detail why claiming to not care about politics just means you have a privileged life where the status quo that devastates marginalized people props up your wealth and comfort.

White veganism meme probably speaks for itself.

The feeling uncomfortable meme could probably be on the cover. The whole zine could refer to it at various points to remind the reader that being taken out of their comfort zone is the only way to grow.

Reverse racism meme is perfect without needing explanation, but maybe a paragraph with examples of the history of poc building things only for whites who did no work to enjoy the spoils while making policies to keep poc down in the hole so they don't have to share their ill gotten gains.
