“All borders are acts of state violence inscribed in landscape.”
—Mike Davis and Alessandra Moctezuma, Colorlines

Our coop will be joining indie bookshops across the country for #BookstoresAgainstBorders on July 5th-7th. We're committed to donating 5% of all sales to RAICES and an additional 5% to Compañeros Inmigrantes de las Montañas en Accion (CIMA). Not able to drop by our store or prefer to support the campaign with a direct donation? You can contribute online!

Refugee and Immigrant Center for Education and Legal Services (RAICES) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit agency that promotes justice by providing free and low-cost legal services to underserved immigrant children, families, and refugees.

Compañeros Inmigrantes de las Montañas en Accion (CIMA) connects, strengthens and organizes communities to take action for immigrants’ rights in Western North Carolina.
