"Over the years, Changing Hands, a community center and gathering place, has been the site of some hard conversations--a place where ideas are exchanged, heated topics debated, petitions signed, controversy encouraged and differences of opinion tolerated. I hope this is always the case. If we lock ourselves into an idea without discussing it or learning more about it, we are succumbing to our own inner biases, or perhaps prejudices formed by being battered by media."
--Gayle Shanks, co-owner of Changing Hands, Tempe, Ariz., writing on the store's website about Changing Hands' role in the debate over Arizona's new immigration law
