Nothing more than a front for Avakian cultists

Popped in here on a whim while looking for the elevator to the parking garage and ended up spending a lot of time browsing around the store. Great selection of radical literature, and a wonderful selection of graphic novels dealing with heavy subject matters

I wish this store organized tours for the customers to the countries where communist revolutions succeeded: Venezuela, Cuba, North Korea. It would be very helpful to match the story on paper with the reality.

Is it a front for the Revolutionary Communist Party? Is it the clubhouse of the Bob Avakian fan club? For lovers of bookstores this a must visit!

I have mixed reviews. The books are beautiful, diverse and offer a wide selection of political and socially aware titles from children's to adult. Unfortunately, I have to throw in a caution as they will try to convince you to get involved in the works of their "leader." if the bookstore itself did not have cult undertones it would be a great space.

Awful book store that promotes revolutionary communism. Clearly ran by historically illiterates morons who know nothing about history. I invite them to talk with a single person who lived through the horrors of communism before trying to spread their garbage ideology.

I love this bookstore! The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Lots of great books here, covering a fairly wide variety of topics. I think this store alone is worth traveling to Berkeley for.Thank you all for making this possible!

Amazing bookstore to find alternative viewpoints from what society considers the truth. Great place to challenge your belief system.

Sad to learn how this store spreads russian propaganda, total disrespect to human rights and insights violence.

Such knowledgable and helpful staff. They went out of their way to tell is about the latest diverse books on their shelves. They are so well informed on banned books and helpful in ensuring you pick diverse books for your home or, in my case, school library. Educator discount available.

8/28/22 - visited revolution books ( @revolutionbksb ) and felt like i could browse in there for HOURS ! the way that all of the books were separated according to the various genres they fit under was so easy to navigate and was overall nice :) unfortunately, i had set a limit of how many books i could buy or else i would have filled my bags ! i think it is so important to support not only independent bookstores but also bookstores like this one with a purpose ! they describe themselves as "a bookstore about the world and for a whole new world!" personally, i love this because all of the books they sell are picked for a reason. they are books written by people who deserve to have their voice heard because they have important things to say in a world where sometimes people refuse to listen ! i am happy that i was able to contribute to and support a place who offers a safe space for writers and readers that want to create change :) if you haven't visited this bookstore, then you need to run over there right now ! or maybe tomorrow when they're open :) as the banner on the front of their store says "support & sustain this unique bookstore & buy a gift that matters!"
