Black Sheep Books, a community space and bookstore in
Montpelier, Vermont, offers affordable radical and
scholarly books, and hosts educational events on
cultural and political topics. As an all-volunteer
project, we are operated by a five-member collective
hand in hand with a group of dedicated volunteers. Our
principle focus is to provide access to
anti-authoritarian Left ideas in a way that promotes
intellectual debate and challenges today’s hegemonic

egalitarian, ecological, and nonhierarchical society.
