Invest in Your Community

Readers deserve to see themselves in the books that they read, and politicians, teachers, and parent groups are banning books and stripping rights in order to render marginalized communities powerless. Liberation is Lit is a bookseller that aims to spark collective action for liberation and community building among readers and book lovers by promoting stories from intersectional experiences. These groups know that reading is political, but so do Radical Readers. The stories we read have the power to band us together to find liberation for us all.

Two ways you can join our movement:

1. Donate your gently used books

We are looking for all genres

2. Invest directly in our Liberation Fund

Your Support Matters: Help us provide free books and book coaching services to community members in need. Every donation fuels literacy, empowers activists and change-makers, and fosters a liberated community.

Why Liberation?

• Books and stories help build empathy, foster radical vulnerability, and strengthen our ability to actively listen to stories from people who are different from ourselves.
• Books and stories build bridges, fostering unity and understanding within our communities.
• Liberation is Lit is a business that strives to be as community-centered and aims to disrupt capitalism as we know it. By providing free books for those who may not be able to afford them, we contribute to the liberation of minds, breaking the chains of limited access.

How Your Donation Helps:

• Provides free books to children/youth, people who are experiencing homelessness or incarceration, and free little libraries around the community.
• Supports book drives and pop-up libraries in underserved neighborhoods.
• Fosters a love for reading among children, teens, and adults alike.
