BANNED IN DC
Photos and Anecdotes from the DC Punk Underground

Sun Dog Propaganda, 1988

Originally published in 1988, Banned in DC captures the anarchic spirit, raw energy, and camaraderie of the mid-1980s Washington D.C. hardcore punk scene through hundreds of photographs, flyers, and first-hand accounts assembled by Cynthia Connolly, Leslie Clague, and Sharon Cheslow. Featuring bands including Minor Threat, Bad Brains, Faith, Scream, and Void alongside scenesters, audience members, and underground spaces, the book remains one of the defining visual documents of American hardcore culture.
