This is the 32nd issue of BLK magazine published July 1991. The front cover is printed in color and features an image of Emanuel Tapp. Standing centered in front of a slate-blue backdrop, Tapp is wearing a gold-colored chain necklace and a red V-neck shirt, pictured from the waist up. There are two individuals out of frame pointing guns at Tapp on either side of him: from the left is a hand visible only from the wrist forward pointing a black revolver; from the right is a hand only visible from the wrist forward pointing a black hand gun. At the top and centered, [BLK] is printed in bold, white, uppercase letters within a red rectangular box. Above the text box in small, yellow, uppercase letters it reads [THE NATIONAL BLACK LESBIAN AND GAY NEWSMAGAZINE], fitting across the length of the textbox.
