Published 22 December 2009 · Main Posts Activism Ahoy! Karen Pickering The New International Book Shop is Melbourne’s radical bookseller, supplying progressive and explicitly left-wing literature to activists, readers and thinkers worldwide. Housed in the rather splendid Trades Hall, NIBS can help you get informed, motivated, and active in progressive politics. They’re also a great friend of the magazine and a sponsor of our Subscriberthon, donating the Do Something Prize – an activist pack, including books, badges, stickers and a T-shirt, so you can make a bloody buggery difference to this world thanks to the nerve centre of activism in Melbourne. And the winner is… Lyndon Megarrity! Congratulations, sir, and a very merry raging against the machine to you.
