A portion of the sale price of any merchandise you buy from Powell’s Books via www.
JaneLaTour.com or www.AnglicanExaminer.com will benefit the human rights
program of
The Anglican Examiner, a religion and public affairs website which seeks
to inspire religious activisim on behalf of human rights, economic justice, and
environmental sustainability.

Among other things, this program seeks to incorporate human rights protocols into
international business corporations through the
investment activities of religious
communities, educational institutions, and city and state pension funds.  It also seeks
to encourage religious communities to address the question of how the principles of the
Universal Declaration of Human Rights can and should apply within religious
communities, especially with regard to questions of the status of women and LGBT
people and to questions of freedom of conscience
within religious communities and
respect for freedom of religion
by religious communities themselves and by other non-
governmental organizations.

The employees of Powell's Books are represented by Local 5, ILWU.  You can learn
