Bell Hooks: The Last Interview: and Other Conversations

Bell Hooks was a pioneering author, feminist, social activist, cultural theorist, and teacher whose unflinching work carved deep grooves for the feminist and anti-racist movements. In this collection of interviews, stretching from early in her career until her last interview, she discusses feminism, her "Hillbilly Roots," class politics, the complexity of rap music and masculinity, Buddhism, intersectionality, sexuality, and the importance of communication across cultural borders. Whether sparking controversy on campuses or facing criticism from contemporaries, Hooks relentlessly challenged herself and those around her, inserted herself into the tensions of the cultural moment, and anchored herself with love.
