Hey Y'all, Asheville's premier anarchist bookstore @firestorm had a rough year, and they're trying to figure out how to navigate into next year strong.

They sell online, and I'm sure that a post holiday order would go a long way towards helping them close their '25 gap.

Firestorm was inspirational to me in building #HemlockBazaar. I wouldn't have had the confidence to build a weird leftist bookstore in the middle of Appalachian mountains without their example.

If you find yourself in #asheville please consider dropping by and exchanging some currency for some goods. They're good folks and their mission is important.

Are you or @firestorm willing to support an unhoused Black trans radical by reading & circulating this?

@[email protected] There is a Black, trans, disabled mask bloc cofounder who spent this “holiday” in the freezing cold thanks to the colonial exclusion of white progressives. I'm trying to help gather financial, material, & comradely support for them by sharing a wishlist, paylinks, & their story of how they were made houseless by presumed allies. Would Firestorm be willing to boost or share the materials? As a white-run radical space you have a reach & audience this person doesn't. The wishlist is here: https://tinyurl.com/supportDiJ The description also includes a Cash App link, but for convenience the handle is $PoetJaleane & the document “A Call-Out Of AntiBlack Lineages” is here: https://tinyurl.com/ACallOut
