What is Friends of PM and how does it work?
Your Friends of PM monthly membership allows you to directly promote radical, independent media, support community-driven ideas for change, and introduce important authors to a wider audience. It's also the best way to support our publishing work.
For just $30 a month, you'll receive a monthly package with every new book we publish delivered right to your doorstep (shipping and tax included). You will also get 50% off anything and everything on our webstore (old and new releases alike). See all level options below.
Your card will be billed once a month, until you tell us to stop or until our collective efforts succeed in bringing capitalism and the state crumbling to the ground. Whichever comes first. There is no minimum amount of months required. For as long as you're a Friend of PM, you'll get the monthly packages and the 50% discount.
*This free bandana offer does not apply to Sustainer levels under $30/month, but current Sustainers can switch to a full Friend of PM at any time to receive the free bandana. Paypal cannot be accepted for this membership, so please use a bank card at checkout.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
C’mon, what’s the catch!? Hidden fees? This sounds too good to be true.
There’s no catch. We bill your card each month and send you a large package of new books. Period. There are no hidden fees and you can cancel your subscription anytime. You can also choose to pay for a year in advance to lower your subscription fee. Oh, and we also cover all shipping costs and all applicable sales tax.
How many books will I receive each month and do I get to choose my books?
Some months it might be two books; others four. We publish around thirty titles per year, and each month, you’ll get a package with everything new that has come out that month. By subscribing, you’re already choosing to get everything new that appears. And as a subscriber, you’re also entitled to a 50% discount on all of our already-published titles and everything else on our website, including CDs, DVDs, and stylish apparel.
I’m starting a radical library at our local community space. Can the library join the Friends of PM Book Club? Can we resell the books?
Absolutely! Sign up your radical library, local café, punk house, record store, or any other community space. A Friends of PM subscription is probably the cheapest and easiest way to stock any bookcase. You can’t beat a package of new books for such an incredibly low price. Additionally, you can use your Friends of PM discount to receive 50% off at our webstore.
