July 08, 2025 Introducing Family Plot Podcast - A History of Bookstores as Resistance Centers
This week we wanted to share an episode from a podcast friend of ours as we were unable to get an episode of our own out. This is the Family Plot Podcast and they discuss A History of Bookstores as Resistance Centers on episode 255.

Show notes.
In this episode we are joined by Kelsey Black, of the Book Burrow Bookstore in Pflugerville Texas as we discuss the history of Bookstores as Resistance Centers. We discuss David Ruggles and the first Black-owned bookstore in the United States and how he was a figurative and literal stop on the Underground Railroad, selling books about feminism and the abolitionist movement. We talk the FBI's illegal COINTELPRO and how they went after book stores like Hakim's and The Drum and Spear Bookstore. We discuss the Gotham Book Mart, the 8th Street Bookstore and Peace Eye Books in New York City and so much more, even digging into how booksellers have sneaked secret information to their customers in this fully amazing episode of the Family Plot Podcast
