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.
