Eso Won Books is an independent, Black-owned bookstore - one of very few in the country. The South LA landmark will be closing its doors by the end of this year.
Co-owner James Fugate decided to make bookselling his career - ironically - after reading a book.
Fugate and his business partner Tom Hamilton opened the South LA treasure Eso Won Bookstore in the 80s. But the company started as a sort of "books on wheels" - community events focused on access. "But we wanted to make sure that those books were available to people and along with everything else."
