Over a record-setting Fourth of July for book sales, Point Reyes Books raised $1,000 for a non-profit that assists families on the border. The bookstore contributed 10 percent of its profits from 450 transactions, plus additional donations, to the “bookstores against borders” initiative, which raised over $80,000 for the Refugee and Immigrant Center for Education and Legal Services. “The book community came together really nicely,” owner Stephen Sparks said. “I feel really fortunate that so many people who shop in the store both contributed and are aligned with us on this. We feel fortunate to feel affinity with our community.” The shop, which transferred ownership in 2016, has embraced similar initiatives, such as for the A.C.L.U. and environmental justice, in the past. “This is a small business and we have our beliefs. And this is a way to further our beliefs without bludgeoning them over the head,” Mr. Sparks said. Despite him and his co-owner Molly Parent’s overall left-leaning political stance, he doesn’t see the conditions on the border as a political issue. “It’s a human issue when you see the conditions these people are in, being treated like animals,” he said. “Even if it’s very modest, we like to contribute.”
