"We fight the same battles over and over again. They are never won for eternity, but in the process of struggling together, in community, we learn how to glimpse new possibilities that otherwise never would have become apparent to us, and in the process we expand and enlarge our very notion of freedom" --Angela Davis

So excited for our fifth annual celebration of Red Books this Saturday! Can't wait to see everyone for a joyful moment of solidarity and camaraderie

The most important thing about running a tiny community organizing space is being flexible. Red Ink frequently changes over the course of the day, from reading room, to conference room, to knitting circle, to live music venue. Serving the community means being responsive to its needs, whatever they may be.

If you're the kind of person who believes, like I do, that these kinds of spaces are vital to building a vibrant, energetic and empowered working class, then you can make sure we stay open by making a donation at the link in the bio. We rely on your support to be the reading room, the knitting circle, the live music venue of the people.
