This week of Juneteenth, as a certain "author" has chosen yet again to profit off the title of one of bell hooks' books, how wonderful would it be to see her exquisite COMMUNION on all the bestseller lists?

Consider purchasing from a black-owned bookstore - I recommend our neighbors in Charlotte, the Urban Reader Bookstore, whom you can support by choosing them after clicking the link in the comments.

Gratitude Post! Cora Greene, proprietor of our across-the-street neighbor - Glass Ingenuity - was inspired to make this *AMAZING* Waldo stained glass installation last summer ahead of Find Waldo downtown.

How lucky are we to have such a fantastic neighborhood of stores to collaborate with??

Are you excited to participate in Find Waldo next month?? We are!

Gratitude post! Imagine loving your community so much you'd donate your home to preserve the neighborhood's park?

Salisbury's Hurley family were those kinds of generous souls - and you can place a sealed bid on their gorgeous home this month - the sale of which will benefit our Bell Tower Green.

Call 704-798-1034 for details on the sale.

Second photo is of our chair lift, which Gerry Hurley's family was incredibly kind enough to donate to our store earlier this year, so our basement's newly renovated event space is accessible for all.

Salisbury, man - it is a special place full of incredible people. How lucky are we?
