Description
Book SynopsisIn an awesome meeting of minds, cultural theorists Stuart Hall and bell hooks met for a series of wide-ranging conversations on what Hall sums up as life, love, death, sex. From the trivial to the profound, across boundaries of age, sexualities and genders, hooks and Hall dissect topics and themes of continual contemporary relevance, including feminism, home and homecoming, class, black masculinity, family, politics, relationships, and teaching. In their fluid and honest dialogue they push and pull each other as well as the reader, and the result is a book that speaks to the power of conversation as a place of critical pedagogy.
Trade Review"Imagine if you could listen to a conversation between bell hooks and Stuart Hall about feminism, race, sexuality and love? With this book, we do not have to rely on our imaginations. This conversation between hooks and Hall flickers with life and is full of wit, warmth and wisdom. The book gives us the opportunity to learn from two of the most important black critical thinkers of our time." -Sara Ahmed, independent scholar
