Its main purpose is to promote LGBT rights as Human Rights, but also to create a safe social place for the LGBT community and LGBT-friendly people in general. Being the first LGBT book shop ever opened in Romania, it will receive the great benefits of being unique and, at the same time, it will help empower the LGBT community on social grownds. The purpose of this bookstore is, in no way, to promo
te any kind of isolation or extreme exclusivity for the LGBT community, but on the contrary; it will serve as an intersection of all kinds of people who are usually targeted as minority groups (based on gender, sexual orientation, religion, ethnic identity etc). Non-LGBT or non-Human Rights related products can be featured if the autor(s) belong to one of the above mentioned categories, even if their literature doesn't. This way, we will not only give a chance to young and less famous writers or artists to promote their works, but we will also be educating the public about classic authors and their belonging to a certain type of minority. The first objective of this page is to make a call towards everyone interested in supporting LGBT as Human Rights worldwide, to help funding this project and make it become reality. This is an independent project which aims at raising the necessary start-up amount of money by means of crowdfunding sources.
