Infoshops in Lansing and Detroit Looking for Your Support

(posted from Michigan IndyMedia)


The Brighter Days Infoshop in Lansing and Idle Kids Books & Records, an infoshop in Detroit, are both distributing calls for support as they build their respective projects of developing radical culture and community through DIY (do-it-yourself) event and retail spaces. An infoshop has been defined by Slingshot magazine as "a cross between a radical bookstore and a movement archive."
Brighter Days describes itself as "a radical counter-institution, as part of a revolutionary strategy ... attempting to set an example of a different type of society: one explicitly opposed to all forms of exploitation and oppression." Idle Kids describes itself as working "to [create] a positive space to promote learning and the motivation of human spirit. We are striving for unity within our community, geographical as well as our shared music and art community."
