Readers Alliance of CSR — elevating African voices through reading and culturally-aware proofreading.
We discover that African contextual thinking needs people who understand it in proofreading African writings.
The Living Joy Book Club are readers of books—both already published or in-progress manuscripts that need proofreading for writers. Membership is open for all who want to join. We are flexible on issues and topics related to Black people of African roots, whether in the diaspora or not. Core members are people from Africa and the African diaspora. Join us and become a member. We have a separate forum for non-African descent.
