Challenged at the Powell’s Books flagship store in Portland (OR). Protesters complained that “Andy Ngo goes out of his way to dox the Black Lives Matter community which he considers ‘antifa’” and is accused of selectively editing videos and sharing misleading information about Antifa activities. Powell’s issued a statement that the book would not be promoted or placed on their shelves, though it will remain available for purchase online. “We carry a lot of books we find abhorrent, as well as those that we treasure. We believe it is the work of
bookselling to do so.”
