The April 1991 issue lulls you into a false sense of complacency by burying its biggest bummer feature in the middle of the island, but then there it is: "They're Shooting Horses." DAMN, KAREN! (Spoiler: this is a problem the U.S. government still hasn't solved -- hope you were sitting down to read this.) Around it, we get Christina's embedded report from a Black debutante ball in Georgia; Margie's mini-profiles of 5 people in cool and important jobs, What He Said about dating an unpopular girl, It Happened To Me from a conflicted breast-reduction surgery patient, and a lot more. Content warning for the fiction story: it's about a girl with the OLDEST MOM IN RECORDED HISTORY -- 60!!!!!
