Scam #7The return to Miami! Spring 2010
In this issue: Art Basel, tear gas, Sylvester Stallone, Take Back the Land, FTAA protests, Shephard Fairey
Erick Lyle is one of my favorite writers of our times. He's developed a journalistic style that stays so true to all his scam punk ethics. Writing about political issues with a sence of immediacy and humor. I mean, it's funny. It's so good. If you've never read Scam, this is a great issue to start with. If you've read it, you know what I'm talking about and you're probably already ordering this.

Scam! The First Four Issues!
A Scam Anthology! It's so good it's hard to put down. "It would be a mistake to view this anotholgy merely as a historical document... It is about finding a way to live free and to fight back at all times. It's about making something happen with whatever resources are at had. Scam was about stealing back my time from work and rent and trying to found a lowlife literary tradion with no tools but a stolen Kinko's copy card, dumpstered stamps, and a box car. The specific scams may not work anymore, but they are part of a way of criminal thinking that offers clues on how to take on the sickening glossy and corporate world we live in.

Simple History Project
My friend John writes these Simple History zines that are really excellent. It started out as a project in response to the twisted version of history his daughtor was learning in school, and how most of us actually don't know much about some of the major events of our world. The subjects are presented in a "I'm not taking sides" kind of way, but each one exposes what a corrupt nightmare of a world has been created by capitalism, facism, religion, colonization and war.

SICK: A Compilation Zine on Physical Illness
This is a beautiful little book/zine. It "collects peoples' experiences with illness to help establish a collective voice of those impacted within radical/left/DIY communities. The zine is meant to be a resource for those who are living with illness as well as those who have not directly experienced it themselves. Contributors discuss personal experiences as well as topics such as receiving support, providing support, and being an informed patient. These writings are meant to increase understandings of illness and further discussion as well as action towards building communities of care." (review from the Microcosm website.)

Skinned Heart This is a beautiful and intense personal and political zine about racism, feminism, child abuse, rape, mental illness, cultural appropriation and a bunch of other life things. This is the kind of zine that first got me into zines and that I don't see enough of these days - that takes personal experiences, sees them through a political lense, and makes you feel, not just think.

Snarlas Southern Tour 2009
tour zine, like all tour zines, talks about what we did and where we went. We wrote Snarlibs, which are just like Mad Libs only about our band. Very funny, even to other people who aren't in the band. also boring, like all tour zines.

Support zine
an anthology I put together about supporting abuse survivors. A lot of people have written to me and said that this helped them identify as survivors, and to find a way forward in their lives, find ways to change their patterns and find support and healing. This zine includes the consent questions that Andrea, Able and I came up with, and they are are great way for people to start talking about consent, either with their partner(s) or with their friends.
This zine is not just for survivors, but is also for people who are friends and partners with survivors, to help them understand.

Taking Risks: Implementing Grassroots Community Accountability Strategies
written by a collective of women of color from Communities Against Rape and Abuse
this zine is a description of CARA's accountability guidelines for addressing sexual violence. It's a great introduction to forming an community accountability structure.
the principles discussed are:
1.Recognizing the humanity of everyone involved. 2. Prioritizing self-determination of the survivor. 3. Identify a simultaneous plan for safety and support fo the survivor as well as others in the community 4. Carefully consider the potential consequences of your strategy. 5. Organize Collectively. 6. Make sure everyone in the accountability-seeing group is on the same page with their political analysis of sexual violence. 7. Be clear and specific about what your group wants from the aggressor in terms of accountability. 9. Consider help from the aggressor's friends, family and people close to the aggressor. 10. Prepare to be engaged in the process for the long haul.

Toothworm #4: I, Turdshiner
Disturbing and beautiful, small stories about injuries on the inside and out "Band-Aids won't stick to an ugly mouth of exposed tissue. Crisis is a mountain or a pyramid, do what you got to." abuse and "is coping really a viable option". sex and puking and tour the lies we uphold. priveledge and queerness and what it looks like to watch her father sick from addiction and withdrawing. "Right and wrong, fear and love, beauty and ugly, safety and threat, care and coercion. All the hate that brought me here.
I read this zine and then put it down and then read it again, trying to get all the essence of it.

Towards a Less Fucked Up World: Sobriety and Anarchist Struggle
Written by my friend Nick who I really respect. The first article in this zine is called "Masculinity, Rape Culture and Intoxication". A couple people I know said it really opened their eyes and helped them challenge themselves and change their behavior.
I really liked the article "intoxication and 'autonomy' vs accountability", which talks about the difference between rugged individualist anarchism and community based anarchism, and also about the Zapatista movement where most most Zapatista land is alcohol and drug free, because many women wanted that in the new societies they were working to create. There are also articles about why sober spaces are important.

Tuff Town #2 pocket sized with pretty printed cover, hand sewn binding and full of care. Sweet stories like trying to take city busses from Goleta to LA and getting stranded we decided this was how we would tell if we could be friends with people or not; whether or not they thought this was stupid. A small, two girl bike trip along the ocean and it feels like the ocean, windswept with strange characters. She talks about not always talking about real tings because how can you? the horror of screaming alcohoic father and the same man closing his eyes when he plays Neil Young on guitar.
families, skateboarding, music, going to jail for dumpstering, the shitty unrealness of macho whiteboy politics and the realness of what is in our bodies, the realness of actual struggles for liberation.

Understanding Your Menstrual Cycle
a handout about charting and understanding your menstrual cycle. It is very basic and easy to understand, and was what I used when I was first trying to understand my body. Charting my cycle made me feel so much better - closer to my body and like my hormones weren't a mystery or in charge of me. This handout makes it seem like you can just chart your cycle and use that knowledge as birth control, which I really don't recommend. If you want to use Fertility Awareness as birth control, you really need to read more info than this, but this is a good introduction.

Workin' On It:Ways to tokenize/alienate a non-white person.
This is a zine put out by anti-authoritarian and other radically progressive people of color, and "is intended primarily as a tool for people of color to recognize, more redily, oppressive forces at play in our lives in order to begin the work of healing from them."
I think it is also a good resource for white people to recognize their own racism, and ways that racism plays out in this fucked up world.
