Title: Diseased Pariah News #5
Description: San Francisco, Diseased Pariah News, Publisher. Wraps. Not sure of date. Color illustrated wraps, with original wraparound band, unopened on the right edge, thus making interior forbidden territory for us (sure, we could try to slip off the band, but we can't even fold a map correctly, so-). 30 pp. Black and white illustrations throughout. Fifth issue of this influential zine that discussed living with HIV/AIDS. All three editors were HIV positive. They used dark humor to discuss HIV and AIDS, and while the zine was written with a gay male audience in mind, it acknowledged AIDS affected everyone and sought input from all persons dealing with the disease. Despite its humor, the zine offered insight into living with HIV/AIDS in a climate where those living with the disease were often considered "pariahs." With the usual content. (or so we surmise) NEAR FINE condition. Very light wear to the zine. Near Fine .
