The March for Women's Lives was the largest march of its kind in American history! So, why did the media downplay, misrepresent, or downright ignore it? It’s becoming increasingly obvious that we have to tell our own stories; the media is not going to do it for us! This zine is 38 (half) pages and includes march stories and photographs from over twenty contributors. It also comes with a CD-ROM that contains dozens of additional photos, a video, and a computer copy of the zine (so you can make and distribute your own copies). We really want to get the word out about this amazing experience, to commemorate the march for those who were there and to give the REAL story to those who were not. Get a copy of the March for Women’s Lives Zine and CD-ROM, only $3 postage paid. Then make and distribute copies everywhere. SPREAD THE WORD!! For info email marchzine [AT] yahoo.com

"It is hard to describe my zine, but I guess it is mostly about parenting just because I personally have four children. I have a steady contributor who along with an essay does a comic trip called Radical Sluts. Which is about a group of women who are tired of the system so they seduce world leaders to get them to perform good deeds. I have a segment called "A Day in the Life of a Mother Rebel". A mother (usually me because no one else has contributed to that particular segment) journals her day. I have a "Mother Rebel Rants" where I bitch about whatever has pissed me off most in the three months that it took me to put together the zine. Once it was about people calling the police on mothers who leave their kids alone in their cars. Hello, if you are that worried hang out and keep an eye on the kid. Another time it was about assuming that single mothers are slacker mothers simply because they are unmarried. I also print essays and reviews, artwork and the like."
