Great selection of books, some of them obscure, but all of them socially conscious and justice oriented. Great people there, too.

I love this place because it unabashedly sells books about topics that are not found that easily even in Austin. The store also hosts author/activist talks from time to time which I find both vital and interesting. From what I understand, this is a volunteer run store and it's more like a collective effort. The titles confront everything you thought you knew about history and makes you think, really think about the history and current plight of the cultures represented there.
