Great place to go if youre interested in social justice and its impact on local and global communities. There are tons of zines available, too, if that sort of thing is your bag.Staff was very chill and helpful.

Crowned heads, wealth and privilege may well tremble should ever again the Black and Red unite!

Not what I expected. A lot of good reviews, but really underwhelming. Don’t waste your time

A so-called anarchy store that forces people to violate the ultimate human right... To keep the only 2 people in the store (employees) safe. But this was told to me after one of the employees came back in from a smoke break right outside the door. Hahahaha. This world is insane!

Great place to meet up if your part of the anarchy

Great place, good resources for people in need.

Everyone starts somewhere, consider starting here.

I work for a merchant services company that works with other retailers. I stopped by this location on a whim, and the entire staff was friendly and knowledgeable.

This is an Anarchist and communist place

I love this bookstore. I like that you can sit down and read downstairs - where I have found some of the best books... also I have found all of the books from my childhood (pretty much the whole wall when you walk down, on your left) reminds me of when I was a kid.I cant let myself go here too often, cause I dont have the time or the money or the strength to walk out of the store with all the books that I crave.

The kind of place thats so cool, its a bit intimidating. Tonnes of zines, by donation. Very involved in their community, including a prisoner writing program, and hosting events at the shop. Small selection of interesting books upstairs, good used prices. Plus a chill store cat. Ugh, the coolest.

This place was a delightful find. The proprietor was knowledgeable but not nosy. All the new books were well curated, the layout was good. The used section in back was full of interesting books and funny gems. If I find myself in Austin again after a hike to Mori point, I would drop by.

What a great bookstore. Aaron is so nice, helpful and accommodating. Great selection of childrens books as well.

If its not for you then its not for you.

Having visited various infoshops and community spaces, this visit felt underwhelming and awkward. Perhaps it was who was volunteering that day. It didnt feel very welcoming.

Great books and great people. For anyone who wants to know more about things that people stick their nose up in the air about, be sure to visit here.

A unique bookstore that has a good selection of what I would describe as activist literature. Picked up a couple good reads, and I plan to show more of my friends about it in the future. Also I hope to attend one of the many events they have coming up that are all great community outreach events.

Very COOL and laid back book store and meeting place, with a small but good variety of books regarding an interesting ideology/movement of a perspective of hope of a better future. They have self make and self serve tea and coffee. One could easily spend a couple of hours conversing with other clientele and volunteer staff, who are exceptionally awesome, leaving better enlightened.

These people have big hearts and are doing incredible work.

Theres a lot of energy here for a bookstore, this is not Barnes and Noble. The space is organic, lived in, some books are completely free and the store is home to an adorable kitten as well(at least theyre a kitten as Im writing this).This place isnt for everyone, not all the books are for everyone, but everyone is welcome and everyone will find something they like to read, or at least talk about.

Theyre a great place to steal from.

Nice try, FBI! No description from me! 😉

Loved this bookstore! Great place for magazines, essays, and books.

Killer place. Lots and lots of zines both for sale and for free, good laid back atmosphere.

Narrow selection. More of a discussion/ meeting place than bookstore. Laid back seating area and staff.

I love this bookstore. They have some really heady books and the visiting authors are interesting also I really love the live performances.

Its a left wing book shop. Thats all you need to say. Its a lefty book shop. And I think its a coperative, to boot. So dont give me your libertarian its statist crap. Its not a libertarian bookshop. I found the staff guy there very nice and helpful. Good selection. Support your local bookseller!

For what it is, a radical anarchist gathering place its the best and only in the Austin area. Not much of a book store, more of a hangout. Next door to Forbidden Fruit sex shop and Vegan Nom food truck. Easy access from Burnet and Lamar, and various bus routes including 801 and 803.

This is bookstore that supports equality and justice. Some people who have reviewed this bookstore might be offended by this.

A great place to get tapped into Austin activism and pick up some cool zines.

So much information at your finger tips if your into that sorta thing. Also a small donation or a full donation keeps voices amd dreams alive all over. P.s. THEY have coffee and tea for donations as well ;)

Little place that youll love or be creeped out by. Slightly anarchist bent, but also championing other positive social causes.

Full of borderline terrorist propaganda. I even saw a booklet for children celebrating anarchists bombers throughout history.

Were so lucky to have a rad community space in Austin!

Great books and good people.

The best lil radical bookstore in Austin!

Wow! I found my favorite radical bookstore on North Loop. I visited Brave New World first and was put off by the Alex Jones conspiracy theory paranoia and Ron Paul worship tomes. Monkeywrench stirs the cockles of this old hippies liberal heart.

Great store, important messages, great volunteers, focus on equality

All other bookstores should be sent to a gulag.

Bookstore with an ideology for righteous minds

Come for the zines, stay for th scene

A great little rebellious neighborhood bookstore

An alternative to the normal bookstores!

Go to the Monkeywrench. Go to it!!!

Eat the rich.

Dope

Books and anarchist materials. Very friendly
