We believe in a just world without domination and oppression and we are working to undermine authoritarian structures of power. The store is collectively owned and run in a manner consistent with our vision. We have no bosses. Group decisions are made collectively using consensus process, and members are empowered to exercise creativity on individual projects. The bookstore is maintained by volunteers who believe in the importance of establishing alternatives to corporate capitalism, while creating new public spaces. There are many similar successful efforts around the globe. Through cooperation with existing notable projects and with your support, we can create a vibrant independent book and activist culture in our community.
