  • Per Bing Search 9/8/2023: The Pearl Diver was an underground newspaper in Portland, Oregon that was published in the late 1970s. It was a gay and lesbian publication that covered topics such as politics, culture, health, and entertainment. It also featured comics, poetry, and personal ads. The Pearl Diver was one of the many alternative newspapers that emerged in Portland during that time, along with The Scribe, The Willamette Bridge, and The Portland Free Press. These newspapers challenged the mainstream media and offered a voice for the marginalized and oppressed communities in the city.
