The story of Ollin Cafetzin began in 2020 when a group of individuals came together with a shared social dream of creating a space for people of color to have critical conversations, and they established the idea of creating the community-driven space known as Ollin Cafetzin.

We offer a rich cultural experience by combining coffee sourced from Indigenous collectives in Latin America with an extensive collection of ethnic studies books. Our mission is to reclaim comunidad through cafetzin, conexión y educación, as we provide a space where our vecinos can find representation and reflection in our offerings.

Our unique coffee shop and ethnic studies library is collectively run by a team of social workers, teachers, and youth organizers. The founding team envisions Ollin Cafetzin to serve as a space where activists can gather to plant seeds of revolution.
