This essay traces the long and turbulent history of American booksellers who have faced censorship, harassment, and even violence for defending the freedom to read. Through vivid anecdotes and historical cases-from undercover stings in the early 1900s and legal battles over β€œobscene” literature, to FBI surveillance of Black bookstores and bomb threats against feminist and LGBTQ+ shops-the author illustrates how bookstores have repeatedly become battlegrounds in the fight for civil liberties and free expression. Despite intimidation from both government and private groups, booksellers have pushed back, shaping legal precedents and rallying communities to defend First Amendment rights. The essay ultimately calls on readers to recognize bookstores as β€œarsenals of democracy” and to support their ongoing role in safeguarding intellectual freedom.

Sadly, many books and journals are culled and may be replaced with digital materials. While it is amazing to have broad access to so many volumes and journals online, it is not so easy to read books from many of these databases. I love the stacks and the riches tucked away there.

The Americans Who Embraced Mussolini - Boston Review As we confront rightwing extremism in our own time, the history of American fascist sympathy reveals a legacy worth reckoning with.

From Henry Ford to the esteemed, path-blazing New York Times foreign correspondent Anne O’Hare McCormick, expressions of fascist sympathy had reached the center of mainstream discourse and American political thought by the late 1930s.
