Keeping the revolutionary tradition of Black August alive requires increasing our commitment or, as the slogan goes, to study, fast, train, and fight.
To help organizers in Indianapolis and elsewhere study and advance the Black struggle, the Liberation Store has thoughtfully crafted three Black August bundles with books, pamphlets, zines, and merchandise to support our collective study, save money, and help advance the struggle in our city and beyond. This month, any proceeds generated by the store will fund the launch of Books Through Bars, a new program getting incarcerated people the books and resources they want and need.Â
