<div style="" class="">We would like to enlist the department in helping Riverside's ONLY independent bookstore, Cellar Door Books.  Last night, the owner of Cellar Door, Linda, received an eviction notice that gives her 40 days to leave her current location.
 The store is profitable and well-run. But Linda has one strike against her: she is vocally and very publicly progressive.<br class="">

<div style="" class=""><br class="">

<div style="" class="">For years now, Cellar Door has held Drag Queen Story Hour. When Jammin' Bread closed, a new owner moved in and opened a cafe called Arcade. This place is owned by a very conservative member of a megachurch whose congregation can be seen
 protesting, yelling, and frowning mightily against Cellar Door's Drag Queen Story Hour, as well as Linda's ongoing masking policy and frequent displays of novels by minoritized groups, Black and Latinx and Queer and Asian and Indigenous and others. Linda has
 prominent signs in the windows supporting BLM and other progressive causes.<br class="">

<div style="" class=""><br class="">

<div style="" class="">Cellar Door has always stocked UCR writers, and our department has held readings there. It is a thriving place where book clubs meet and local children first learn to browse the shelves. We would like as many people as possible to write
 to the owner of Canyon Crest. Those protesting Cellar Door have written many letters, and I'd like her landlord, the owner of Canyon Crest Towne Center to know there are just as many, and probably more, voices who support Cellar Door.</div>
