Barricade Books and queer zines
1 sound
Barricade Books was an anarchist infoshop, formerly located first on Sydney Road from 1995 to 2003, and then at Irene Warehouse, on Pitt Street until 2006. It was a space where left-wing and radical queers could meet, share information, hold events, and organise—and it stocked a range of books, comics, CDs, pamphlets, patches, posters, stickers, t-shirts, and zines.
