As proud ALA members and leftists, we stand with @edrabinski and against bigoted, reactionary politics

[Jacobin @jacobin]

Montana’s State Library Commission has exited the American Library Association over the sexuality and leftist politics of the association president, bringing together a toxic stew of hysterical homophobia and classic red-baiting to attack public libraries.

It is happening in the US, it is happening in Ireland... Libraries will continue to be targets of hatred as long as fascists are enabled and accepted

Want to play a show at @DuboisRobeson ? Check these three slides for dates, how to book, and what to know.

Not a musician? That’s ok, help us by spreading the words to your friends in bands about playing a show at a friggin’ communist library!

[The New Yorker @NewYorker]

Local-library systems, and local librarians, are being vilified nationwide as peddlers of Marxism and child pornography. Whatever faith there was in public learning and public space is fraying. https://t.co/GLOfpZmFik

Important to see local politicians like David here celebrating libraries in a dangerous national climate

[David Morales @DavidMoralesPVD]

With completed renovations and ongoing investments — it was exciting to get a tour of @ProvLib, meet their thoughtful staff, and learn about their engaging programs for youth, teens, and adults because libraries are for everyone! 📚

Community organizing is not a crime. Solidarity with our Chicago comrades

[PilsenCommunityBooks @PilsenCommBooks]

The FBI won't intimidate us, and they won't stop all the brave folks organizing on the ground for a better world.

[Red Ink Community Library @RedInkPVD]

Our books are real and they're spectacular

[Red Ink Community Library @RedInkPVD]

We will not allow this amateurish (and crudely executed) act to stop us. The windows are being repaired today and Dave and Alex have been hard at work cleaning. Please join us tonight for our observation of Red Books Day! 6:30 pm

[Red Ink Community Library @RedInkPVD]

HATRED STRIKES AGAIN! Last night an anti-communist message was sent to us in anticipation of our Red Books Day celebration of the publication of the Communist Manifesto. Last year they showed up with flags to intimidate, this year they threw bricks through the window.

[Providence Leftist Radio Podcast @plrpodcast]

Bricks were thrown through the windows of @RedInkPVD today, regardless its being cleaned and Red Book Day event is still happening later

[Red Ink Community Library @RedInkPVD]

Join us next week! Reading volunteers are welcome as we celebrate the international tradition of leftist publishers, libraries, and booksellers

[Red Ink Community Library @RedInkPVD]

Exciting February! Hope to see you at one of our upcoming events 🌹
