Women & Children First

Your local feminist bookstore since 1979!

 

Women & Children First believes in the transformative power of literature. As intersectional trans-inclusive feminists, we believe books are tools for liberation. Since 1979, we have celebrated and amplified underrepresented voices. In order for feminism to remain relevant, it must be forever evolving. 

 

We hope to realize our dream of an inclusive feminist future.
