    Notes: F.U.C.C. later became Bad Milk Press. Manifesto: “MALA LECHE is a radical art zine by The Feminist Union of Charlottesville Creatives. F.U.C.C. is a feminist art collective of women-identifying, non-binary, and queer artists in the Central Virginia area. We believe that all art is inherently political and has the power to reshape society. We believe that in this time of separation, we have the opportunity to come together as never before. We believe that authentic creation is a radical act, even more so when it is shared with others. May this zine be a testament to our inevitable future, one without fascism, capitalism, and white supremacy.” PDF available.
