Yellow background and handwriting script saying Bookstores Against Borders

Friday, July 5 at 10 AM – July 7 at 3 PM
Two Dollar Radio, 1124 Parsons Ave.
Booksellers at A Room of One's Own — a tremendous bookshop in Madison, WI — came up with the idea of celebrating the Independence Day holiday differently this year.

#BookstoresAgainstBorders is an initiative where shops across the country will contribute a percentage of sales made between July 5 and July 7 to RAICES, one of the most effective organizations giving legal aid to immigrants detained at the U.S. border. They are working to advocate for and represent immigrants and refugees through the American legal system, and have a program to specifically provide representation to unaccompanied children coming over the border.

A portion of all sales (books, food, drink, and otherwise) made between July 5 and July 7 at Two Dollar Radio HQ will be donated to RAICES.

You may also donate directly to RAICES online through a fundraising page: https://www.classy.org/fundraiser/2175288
