A fundraising campaign was launched during the 20th anniversary of the L’Insoumise bookstore. Activists involved in the three floors of 2033-2035 boul. Saint-Laurent, which the anarchist bought in 1983, want to ensure the continuity of Montreal’s oldest anarchist space. An appeal, published on the diffusionlibertaire.org website, explains the renovations the building needs. AEELI, which manages the building, cannot afford the cost of the work, estimated at over $200,000.
“To ensure that the 2033-2035 Saint-Laurent Boulevard remains a permanent, welcoming and central hub for Montreal’s anarchist community, it is now necessary to carry out crucial work to preserve and enhance it. The current building requires major repairs, and a lot of love. The facade, storefront, rear wall of the building, windows on the second and third floors, and the bookstore’s bathroom all need significant repairs.”
Those who can help this place, which has been home to anarchists for generations, should do so.
