learn and fight for justice for the black community.
We will work to become part of the solution.
We will not be silent.

End Anti-Asian Racism

In sorrow and solidarity we stand with the Asian and Asian American community in Atlanta and around the globe. In light of the racist murders of the six Asian women in Atlanta and the alarming number of anti-Asian hate crimes in the past year, we will donate a portion of the proceeds from this list to an organization that advances justice for Asians and Asian Americans. We encourage readers to buy books that tell stories of Asians and Asian Americans and those that are written by authors of Asian decent to learn, gain empathy, combat stereotypes and start conversations. Ending racism begins at home.
If you prefer not to shop in the store...
...You can shop online through our Bookshop.org storefront. We receive a small percentage of sales when you purchase books from our recommended lists, or if you search for any title after clicking on the link below.
Bookshop also supports hundreds of other indie bookstores and is a great alternative to that other big online store.
Books available online aren't necessarily what we have in stock and books purchased through bookshop.org can't be returned in the store.
We are also happy to order books for you that you may pick up in the shop if you wish to avoid the shipping fee. Thank you!
