About me:
We're the oldest Anarchist Infoshop on the Eastern Seaboard!
We are located at 508 S. 5th Street, between South and Lombard streets, in Philadelphia, PA, USA.
Call us at 215-413-0999
Our website is www.woodenshoebooks.org
The Wooden Shoe specializes in Anarchist & other radical political literature, from theory to history to tactic books. We also carry an erray of Anarchist journals and newspapers, as well as other progressive publications. ..

The Wooden Shoe is also a drop-off point for Books Through Bars, a Philadelphia based program to get books to prisoners. If you are interested in it, you can go to http://www.booksthroughbars.org/
I sell many records and cds, too, from punk to hip-hop.
Also in stock is a generous amount of t-shirts in my back. You can see me and my children tabling at many political events across Philadelphia.
The collective that runs me are friendly people who will talk your ear off and are always up for a nice discussion.



Mission Statement:



The Wooden Shoe is an all-volunteer collectively-run Infoshop located in Philadelphia, PA that seeks to embody the principles of anarchism and other movements for social justice. We strive to provide our local community with radical and non-traditional sources of written, digital, and spoken information. We wish to be an empowering resource for activism, organizing, art, self-education, dialogue, community-building, and the anti-capitalist struggle.
Statement of Values:

We seek to be an example of the society we envision and what we are working towards as radicals. We are a non-profit space that works to offer ethical choices in what people buy, eat, drink, and learn. We are a non-hierarchical collective that hopes to empower members through worker self-management and a consensus decision-making process. As a collective, we are committed to discussing and challenging all systems of oppression including but not limited to: racism, sexism, classism, heterosexism, ableism, and ageism within our own collective and in larger society. We seek to recognize and identify various points of privilege we may have as members of a collective that is made up of people with unique identities, backgrounds, and histories. We hope to build a space that is part of a larger social movement that combines our resources with other cooperative and collective organizations locally and around the world for the purpose of mutual aid and the creation of a cooperative society.

For Staffers:

Who I'd like to meet:
You! Stop by and fill out an application to become part of our collective!

One of the things I miss most about Philly is the Wooden Shoe. I love that store. I remember when it was in the old location. Glad to see the store is still around. Next time I get back to Philly I will definitely stop in. I hope A-Space is still around as well. Is Digger or Kat still around?

Cheers,
Mike

We Can Do It Again: Repealing Today's Failed Prohibition -- TAKE ACTION!
December 2008 marked the 75th anniversary of the end of alcohol prohibition. You can help teach a lesson from history by asking your representatives to repeal today’s failed prohibition of drugs.



When America’s leaders repealed alcohol prohibition,it wasn't because they suddenly decided that liquor was safe and that everyone should drink. Rather, it was because they were tired of gangsters raking in rich illegal profits and terrorizing neighborhoods. And we simply could not afford to keep enforcing the failed prohibition during the Great Depression, our nation's worst economic crisis.



Today, America is in the grip of a new economic crisis, but we keep paying for an even more devastating prohibition, the "war on drugs.
"

If you're tired of paying for laws that only make our streets more dangerous, take one minute to let your federal and state elected officials know how you feel by adapting our pre-written letter below.


We can do it again!

TO SEND AN EMAIL TO YOUR REPRESENTATIVE PLEASE GO TO THE LINK BELOW!! IT IS PART OF LEAP, LAW ENFORCEMENT AGAINST PROHIBITION!

PEACE
