In response to a recent series of layoffs, the union that represents the workers at the giant bookstore and book mailing company Powell’s Books in Portland, Oregon (ILWU Local 5), has launched a new kind of campaign. Rather than ask people to boycott the store, the union is asking people to show their support for union workers by buying books from Powell’s through the union’s link below. So, if you need to buy any books please buy them from Powell’s!
