For July, 2024, we are going to peruse fiction and nonfiction associated with the seedier, and more dangerous, side of urban living. If you're looking for uplifting treatments of humanity, you won't find these in any of our July selections !
We've got muggers, thieves, pimps, hoes, crooked cops, alcoholics, drug addicts, murderers, pornographers, transvestites, gangbangers, and black revolutionaries. With that sort of a lineup, how can you possibly go wrong ?!
P.S. I got the phrase 'some tough city,' and the 'distressed' font Vtks Escape, from the title of a 1984 LP by Tony Carey. It's a good album, with the songs 'It's A Fine Fine Day' and 'First Day of Summer.'

I am intrigued by what you'll say about Afro-6. Not an easy book to find! My copy wasn't the cheapest. One of many many many many near future race-revolt style science fiction books of the era -- but written by a Chicano author.
