I enjoyed editing and uploading other students' submissions onto the zine website because I had the opportunity to see the world (and feminism) from their perspective. As I read each essay and personal/political zine, I looked for a developed storyline that was both creative and relatable to current issues affecting women. My goal was to include a range of zines, including raising awareness about preventing women's abuse, reproductive rights, hardworking mothers and feminism from an African American female and gay male's point of view. I edited each essay to represent the student's individual zines and learned more about the history of these unique projects. My observations led me to believe that, although feminism is based on equality, it is largely interpretive due to people's individual experiences in life and how they are treated by society.
