Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.
Bookshop.org is SIX today. 🥳

In these six years, we’ve raised over $44 MILLION for local bookstores—and we have all of YOU to thank for that.

Thank you for loving and supporting indie bookstores as much as we do.

While independent bookstores are giving out free whistles, hosting protest sign making events, and donating proceeds to mutual aid, Amazon is *checks notes* providing technology that assists ICE in their terrorizing of communities.

Independent bookstores deserve your support. Amazon does not.

Fun fact: Your local bookstore is doing more to protect you and your neighbors than Amazon is.

I don’t have anything funny or witty to offer as a balm for what we’re currently living through.

But, what I do want you to know is that there is a human behind this account and humans behind this brand that are hurting with you.

Sending hugs across the internet to everyone who needs one. 💜

Indie bookstores are run by incredible humans who actually care about the world and people around them, who open their doors to those who need it, who speak out against injustice and demand better.

If you need somewhere to be today, your local bookstore is waiting to welcome you with open arms. 💜

If you’re in Minneapolis and need a place to just BE right now, Big Hill Books and Birchbark Books & Native Arts are both open and ready to welcome you with open arms.

While Amazon is investing billions of dollars to expand AI, independent bookstores are hosting community events, personally recommending books to readers, and providing a space that is safe and welcoming during a time when we need them most.

Never underestimate the power of a local bookstore.
