Books that offer Radical Hope (and inspiration for the ongoing fight)
Another depressing year has come and gone: Canada continues to deny the genocide in Palestine, Trump’s reelection spells a turn to fascism in the US, all while temperatures rise and standards of living drop. But this is also a time of great struggle and mobilization!
We’ve seen an exponential increase in labour actions against inflation, tenant movements striking against corporate landlords, and tens of thousands in the streets demanding a Free Palestine. While corporate publishers have buried their heads in the sand (or profited from vile rightwing narratives), independent presses like BTL are steadfast in our support of marginalized voices struggling for a better world for all. So, this holiday season, treat your comrades to the gift of radical hope, love, and community. Don’t blow your money on complicit corporations: give the gift of solidarity instead.

We support the striking CUPW Canada Post workers and will do our best to ship your order as soon as possible. While we don’t know when the strike will end—and there are promised “delays” once a deal is struck—you will get your order. We appreciate your patience and understanding.
If you are in Toronto and would like to pickup in person at our office, use promo code "pickup401" for free shipping.
