Apparently they turned their backs on the show for one reason or another.

The bookstore, she said, was a huge part of that intellectual awakening.
...
The current volunteers and board members stepped into and took over a space that was founded on white, cis feminism (read: white supremacy).

Feminism is a socially acceptable outlet for radical leftists to hate on men and then sometimes they get a little too carried away with that freedom and make it about their hated of specifically white men.

It is always the white mans fault.
Liberal activist Amanda Kijera traveled to Haiti on a mission to prove that the portrayal of black men as savages was not accurate. Kijera was brutally raped. Of course, she blamed the white man for the violence

The article does mention volunteers a few times. That would suggest they've been running on the good will of other activism-minded feminists.

I will say "Anti-capitalist Bookstore Going Out of Business" would have been a more amusing headline though.

Not that I would be surprised it would be true, but do you have a source less questionable that the Gateway Pundit?

sounds like it was a bookstore and was doing well when Portlandia was using it in the show then it got to be too much and they turned it into a community center.

Patriarchy, White Supremacy, Capitalism cannot be reformed and ever serve the people. Abolition is the goal.

They don't come out and say this is the fault of white men, but that part of theor statement says it in a roundabout way.

No it doesn't.

Seems like it closed because it wasnt getting appropriate funding or volunteers.

Their statement is about white supremacy and patriarchy which leads me to believe that their biggest cause for closing is white supremacy and patriarchy. Their statement should have been "Hey, we don't have enough funding and enough volunteers so we will be closing. Thank you to all who have shopped here or spent time here over the years."

I don't know if it's ironic, fitting, or both. Either way, they're technically leading by example, so I can't fault them for THAT.

It also says that it was founded in an era white feminist views and needed. to expand.
At least, in the euro clip.
