Create Me Free (Spring 2003) - $2.00
I had received this zine for consideration before and turned it down... Why? Because I'm pretty apathetic towards prisoners and their plights. Somehow, some way, this thing grabbed me a little... I could just feel something more than previous issues and visions of someone sitting in his/her cell, writing out their thought and feelings really moved me. Anyway, this is put out by a non-profit that collects essays from prisoners and publishes them in a compilation format.

The CIA Makes Science Fiction Unexciting #1 - $1
This zine takes an objective look at Martin Luther King Jr.’s death, suggesting his assassination is linked to the CIA and FBI. This zine is very engaging and hard to put down. Rather than just asking questions without any support the writer uses logic, facts and sometimes evidence to support the ideas. When presented with this kind of concrete information it is difficult to marginalize the writer as being a ‘conspiracy theorist.’ Good title, good zine.
