Doris #24
This issue of Cindy's long-running, well-regarded personal zine continues the alphabet-theme writing with pieces on O's and P's: Ohio, Politics, Pitchfork, Power, Primitivism, and Punk. As always, Doris is successfully evocative, humble, genuine, personal, and encouraging. The Politics and Pitchfork (collective) themes are covered by writings about political collectives, while primitivism is talked about in a transcripted conversation with a friend.

Doris! I loved that zine more than anything, A friend borrowed it to me at a vegan dinner party one time, and it really just opened up my eyes to new possibilites, I loved it, truely a great read.
In this issue, Cindy talks about rural living, and how she used to be scared to death of country folks when she first moved to North Carolina. She, like many of us city folks, dwelled on the negative stereotypes but it wasn't until she listened to the local country station with songs that suspiciously sound like anarchist anthems, that she knew it was going to be okay. That story could've ended there, but much like a great conversation, she leads us off into other territory before we really even know it. She challenges the reader throughout the issue--challenges our pre-conceived notions, our assumptions, and our way of thinking.
