Six pages from a laser-printer color zine exploring themes of liberty, culture, and history through collage imagery. In "LiBERTY," the Statue of Liberty is carted away by two small figures. "From Russia with love..." depicts a folkloric couple in a pastoral scene with the Statue of Liberty in the distance. "At the Circus..." shows an elephant alongside the carted Lady in a carnival parade. In "Mission Accomplished?" Liberty emerges from a supermarket refrigerator. "Buffalo Jump..." shows buffalo at a cliff's edge, one falling with the statue. "The End?" features a fierce bison with blood dripping from its mouth, evoking themes of power, loss, and history.

Cover of the zine "Keith Walsh: Weapons of Mass Instruction" with an image of Walsh's "Black Liberation and Socialism in America, No. 2" (2018), which depicts electric grid of radical political connections featuring a black panther leaping from the grid.

Pages from Violet Ray: Counterimages, a #zine about the #artist-activist who, in late 1960s America, cut war images from LIFE magazine and pasted them into their advertisements to protest capitalist complicity with the Vietnam War.
