About This Book

An acclaimed local author recounts the evolution of Richmond's alternative newspapers, comics, and small presses beginning in the Civil Rights Era. As the political and social upheaval of the 1960s took hold across the United States, even the sleepy town of Richmond, Virginia, experienced a countercultural shift. New attitudes about the value of journalism spurred an underground movement in the press. "The Sunflower, " Richmond's first underground newspaper, appeared in 1967 and set the stage for a host of alternative local media lasting into the 1990s and beyond.
