Lee, QZAP summer intern, wrote a broad review encompassing several queer zine titles, including venerable Diseased Pariah News, that show the fight and fury that PWAs (people with AIDS) gave in the face of an overwhelming pandemic. Humour, too, was another weapon in that fight.

Over at the Bad Place, I made a tradition of posting Douglass' "What, To The Slave, Is The Fourth of July," and I intend to carry on that tradition here. Since most versions you read in classes or in textbooks have parts omitted, the link below has the full text of the speech.

I almost corrected this account because reports were that she was murdered in the sacking of the institute.

Trump's now pretending to take the side of tipped workers, but his Labor Dept changed a rule to make it easier for bosses to pocket workers' tips. This cost tipped workers an estimated $700 million a year in wages.

A new study shows that an N95 mask reduces the number of COVID-19 particles exhaled into the air by *98%*.
Any mask is better than no mask, but an N95 is best. They're inexpensive, not uncomfortable, and save lives.

I didn't see anyone talking about antisemitism when neo-Nazis were matching in the streets and, where I taught at the time, booking the biggest performance venue on campus. The university said their hands were tied. They didn't protect their students from the possibility of racist violence.
