Desired Goal For Project

Based off of Emma Watson's book club, I want to create a platform where the progressive community can come together and share literature that concentrates on feminist issues of today. I want people to connect with one another and start a conversation about gaining new perspectives on social justic issues. Visitors of the site can post book reviews, interviews with authors, and blog about events in the literary community. Social media can be accessed through this website and there could also be article and photo essays uploaded on the blog twice a week.

Why this Pitch?

I am interested in social justice issues, and while there are feminist literary magazines, they often are ran by editors who are subjective and focus more on gaining readers and publishing writers. On this website, I want there to be more of an interaction between writers and readers, or even people who want to learn more about social justice issues.
