Salvation: Black People and Love
by Bell HooksAcclaimed visionary and intellectual, Bell Hooks began her exploration of the meaning of love in American culture with the bestselling "All About Love: New Visions". Here she continues her love song to the nation with the groundbreaking and soul-stirring "Salvation: Black People and Love". Intimate and revolutionary, "Salvation" is a gift as provocative as it is healing. Written from a historical and cultural perspective, "Salvation" takes an incisive look at the transformative power of love in the lives of African-Americans. Whether talking about the legacy of slavery, relationships, and marriage in black life, the prose and poetry of Martin Luther King Jr., James Baldwin, Malcolm X, and Maya Angelou, the liberation movements of the 1950s, '60s, and '70s, sexual pain or pleasure, hip-hop and gangsta rap culture, addiction, greed, or the failure of black leadership, Hooks lets us know what love's got to do with it. Combining the passionate politics of W E. B. DuBois with fresh, contemporary insights, Hooks brilliantly offers new visions that will heal our nation's wounds from a culture of lovelessness.
