About this Event
🔹 Bio:
bell hooks (1952–2021) was a groundbreaking author, feminist, and cultural critic whose work explored love, race, gender, and social justice. All About Love is one of her most influential books, offering a bold and transformative vision of love as a radical, healing force in our personal and collective lives.
🔹 Summary:
In All About Love, bell hooks challenges conventional ideas about love, arguing that it is not just an emotion but an intentional, ethical choice. She critiques the ways society distorts love—through consumerism, power imbalances, and a lack of emotional education—and offers a new framework for building deep, meaningful connections. With insight and warmth, hooks weaves personal stories, philosophy, and cultural critique to redefine love as an essential force for justice, growth, and healing.
