From the 1970s through the 1990s more than one hundred feminist bookstores built a transnational network that helped shape some of feminism's most complex conversations. Kristen Hogan traces the feminist bookstore movement's rise and eventual fall, restoring its radical work to public feminist memory. The bookwomen at the heart of this story—mostly lesbians and including women of color—measured their success not by profit, but by developing theories and practices of lesbian antiracism and feminist accountability. At bookstores like BookWoman in Austin, the Toronto Women’s Bookstore, and Old Wives’ Tales in San Francisco, and in the essential Feminist Bookstore News, bookwomen changed people’s lives and the world. In retelling their stories, Hogan not only shares the movement's tools with contemporary queer antiracist feminist activists and theorists, she gives us a vocabulary, strategy, and legacy for thinking through today's feminisms. @sanolla •

Another snapshot from yesterday’s adventures with Anthony @thealchemyofbooks ✨ •
This morning I got what I’m going to officially dub The Best Phone Call of My Life™️ and I am so so excited to share the news with you...when the time is right.
•
Any guesses as to what the big announcement is?

What a bookstore birthday treat! We ended last week celebrating our first bookstore birthday and hitting our highest number of books sold per week yet! Thank you @downtown_motown and everyone who has traveled in to Morganton from all your lovely kingdoms afar to support us. I am absolutely honored to be your local independent bookstore! •
Don’t forget we’re celebrating #graphicnovels this Friday and Saturday as well as the 10th birthday of @dorkdiaries then rolling into a month of #FindWaldoMorganton2019 in July. We’ve got Story Time at 11:30am Saturday plus we’ll be at the @ccpl.lenoir author event for @meshamaren and community resource event from 10am-noon. Lots of opportunities to stock up on great reads before you head out for all your summer adventures!

Just spent the most lovely (and much needed) morning eating bagels and exploring bookstores with Anthony [ @thealchemyofbooks ]

Moving to NYC was a crazy little leap of faith & I feel so grateful to have been welcomed in by the nyc bookstagram friends.
•
Everyone I’ve met has been so kind. I expected to be intimidated but honestly I’ve never felt more at home with people I just met

It’s Thursday and I’m throwing it back a month to when I took a trip to visit my mom. This is one of my favorite bookstores we visited together: Roundabout Books. Check out this coffee bar. Sign me up for all the literary lattes, please and thank you.~

Does your local bookshop have a coffee bar? Coffee just belongs with books. But, now that I think about it, I would also accept an actual bar at a bookstore, a pizza counter, donut table, brunch buffet...what I’m saying is that anything I can consume belongs next to books. Am I just writing this post hungry? Yes. Yes I am.~
