Mission

We want to educate and inform people in order to achieve community and personal self-sustainment without state, corporate and hierarchal domination. Education is essential if we are to awaken existing discontent, while building solidarity and confidence among existing discontent, laying a foundation for real social change.

We actively support politics and lifestyles that we deem as alternative, multicultural, woman-positive, queer-positive, class-conscious, and all the things that promote a sustainable community.

We sell anarchist and radical literature, propaganda, clothing, and music, but that's not all we do. We also serve as a space for the community. We are all volunteer and collectively run and owned. There is no management here; the shop is run by our efforts and not by orders. For this to work, we must be self-motivated and take it upon ourselves to do tasks in the store that need to be done. Otherwise, a few people are stuck doing many tasks. You choose your level of involvement, the number of days you'll spend staffing or being responsible for other tasks that need to be done.
