Are You My Dada?

This zine is a compilation of stories, art, comics, and quotes featuring puns.

Articles on simpler living, a report on the farm, intro to composting, and discussion of alternative energies.

This pre-Hurricane Katrina zine (first edition, 1997; second edition indeterminate date) draws attention to the problems of "gentrification" of certain neighborhoods in New Orleans, together with national events and concerns related to "class warfare." The author posits that "gentrification" of these neighborhoods uproots the working poor, the homeless, artists and small businesses in favor of upscale shops, restaurants, tourist attractions, and expensive housing which benefit the wealthy. Neighbhorhoods that have been gentrified in New Orleans, New York, London and others are discussed. The zine includes historical background information and photographs about several old Portland, Oregon buildings and neighborhoods (Albina, Vanport, Old Town, King, Boise, Elliot, Portland Emanuel), which at this writing (2009) probably no longer exist.
