Pleasure Muse: bell hooks Tantalizing Trivia She was born Gloria Jean Johnson, but like a longline of Black women who refused to be defined by the narrowness of this world, when she was ready to step on the scene with her talent, she changed her pen name to bell hooks after her great-grandmother. She published more than 30 books. Her first, “Ain't I a Woman: Black Women and Feminism” was inspired by Sojourner Truth. She identified as queer, but defined it as far more complex than who she was sleeping with. She said it was about “the self that is at odds with everything around it and it has to invent and create and find a place to speak and to thrive and to live." She was celibate for 17 years. She practiced Buddhism and counted the monk Thich Nhat Hnah as her teacher. Mirror Work: Gaze lovingly at yourself with slow admiration for each feature on your face.

Subscribe to Quotomania on Simplecast or search for Quotomania on your favorite podcast app!Activist and writer bell hooks was born in Hopkinsville, Kentucky as Gloria Jean Watkins. As a child, hooks performed poetry readings of work by Gwendolyn Brooks, Langston Hughes, and Elizabeth Barrett Browning. She earned a BA from Stanford University, an MA from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and a PhD from the University of California-Santa Cruz.hooks was the author of over 30 books, including Ain't I a Woman: Black Women and Feminism (1981), named by Publisher's Weekly as one of the 20 most influential books published in 20 years; Feminist Theory: From Margin to Center (1984); Yearning: Race, Gender, and Cultural Politics (1991), winner of the American Book Award/Before Columbus Foundation Award; Teaching to Transgress (1994); the children's book Homemade Love (2002), named the Bank Street College Children's Book of the Year; and the poetry collections And There We Wept (1978) and When Angels Speak of Love (2005), and Appalachian Elegy: Poetry and Place (2012), winner of the Black Caucus of the American Library Association's Best Poetry Award.Throughout her life, hooks explored the relationship between sexism, racism, and economic disparity in books aimed at scholars and at the public. In an interview with Bomb Magazine, she said, “To think of certain ways of writing as activism is crucial. What does it matter if we write eloquently about decolonization if it's just white privileged kids reading our eloquent theory about it? Masses of black people suffer from internalized racism, our intellectual work will never impact on their lives if we do not move it out of the academy. That's why I think mass media is so important.” hooks was the winner of the Writer's Award from the Lila-Wallace—Reader's Digest Fund, and has been named one of our nation's leading public intellectuals by the Atlantic. She taught at the USC, Yale University, Oberlin College, the City College of New York, and Berea College. hooks died in late 2021 at the age of 69.From https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poets/bell-hooks.

This week, we celebrate the life and work of trailblazing poet, feminist, and cultural critic, bell hooks. bell hooks changed the course of feminism, demanding that the voices of women of color, queer women, and working-class women be included at a time when feminism was seen as a white middle-class movement. Her more than three dozen books, include collections of poetry and essays, and her groundbreaking 1981 book Ain't I a Woman: Black Women and Feminism. bell hooks died at her home in Kentucky on Wednesday, December 15, 2021. She was 69 years old. In this wide-ranging conversation recorded in San Francisco in 1995, bell hooks spoke to Walter Mosley––novelist best known for his historically based crime and mystery fiction including Devil in a Blue Dress, Black Betty, and White Butterfly––about the power of language, about racism and sexism in America, the importance of discourse and more.
The FDA has permanently lifted a restriction on access to abortion pills. This will allow patients to receive the medication by mail instead of requiring them to schedule an in-person appointment with specially certified health care providers. The decision will not change state laws that ban the pills, but it's one piece of positive news in an otherwise dark future for abortion rights. President Biden indicates that the Build Back Better bill will not be passed before the Christmas break, despite Democratic Senate leader Chuck Schumer's assurances that it would. The Senate had no problem, however, of passing a $768 billion, one-year defense spending bill on a vote of 88-11. So, we won't get critical climate action, paid family leave, universal preschool, or hearing aid coverage, but we will get more, shiny nuclear weapons this holiday season. Did 1,400 Union workers at Kellogg's may have an agreement that would end their 10-week strike. But don't celebrate yet. While negotiators said they have an agreement, workers still need to vote on the agreement. Workers voted down the last tentative agreement after workers refused a two-tiered workforce that would have sold out newer workers. Schools in Pennsylvania and several other states have increased police presence around schools today in response to national TikTok trend to threaten school shootings and bombings. Generally, officials are saying the threats are not credible, but are taking no chances. bell hooks, one of the most important black feminist writers, scholars, and activists has died at the age of 69. She began writing her ground-breaking book, Ain't I a Woman: Black Women and Feminism, when she was a 19-year-old undergraduate. Her long collaboration with Cornell West provided some of the most important dialogic books for a generation of public intellectuals and activists. Democracy in Pennsylvania is not ok. Pennsylvania House Democrats stood up to the GOP's attacks on voting rights and the democratic institutions protecting those rights this week. Progressives, led by Emily Kinkead and Chris Rabb, held a press conference Wednesday morning bringing attention to the GOP's efforts to undermine democracy and weaponizing constitutional amendments aimed at those institutions while leadership used the House Floor to air their concerns. Republicans are pushing constitutional amendments that would immediately dissolve and gerrymander Pennsylvania's supreme court, change the court's 10 year term limits to 2 years, change the Secretary of State's appointed position to an elected position, allow fraudits and give the legislature more control in overseeing elections. The Legislative Reapportionment Committee released their preliminary house and senate maps yesterday and Republicans are upset at the House maps calling them a Democratic Gerrymander. Water is wet and the New York Times recently reported that Scott Perry and other friends from the Freedom Caucus attended key meetings with Trump to overturn the 2020 election. Philadelphia Developer Ori Feibush uses scab labor and someone died at his worksite. The worker, Siarhei Marhunou, was employed by a company called DBCI LLC. DBCI had been subcontracted to work on the project by the Huntingdon Valley-based construction company Hammers Contractors. Hammers had, in turn, been contracted by the Fitler Construction Group, which was managing construction for OCF, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer. Three more Proud Boys from Philly were arrested Friday and charged in connection with the January 6 insurrection. Isaiah Giddens, Brian Healion, and Freedom Vy decided taking pictures of themselves flashing the white supremacist “OK” sign inside Senator Jeff Ferkley's offices was a good idea at the time.

Amy: Welcome to Breaking Down Patriarchy! I'm Amy McPhie Allebest. Today we are going to discuss one of the most clearly-written, accessible texts on Patriarchy and Feminism that I've ever read. It's called “feminism is for everybody: passionate politics,” and it's by the iconic author, professor, cultural critic and social activist, bell hooks. It was originally published in the year 2000, and for this episode my reading partner and I read the new edition that came out in 2014. And speaking of my reading partner, I'd like to introduce Gina Haney. Hi, Gina! Gina: Hi, Amy! Amy: Gina and I met during our first week of a Master's program at Stanford, and we have taken several classes together, including one called “International Women's Health and Human Rights” and another called “The Civil Rights Movement in History and Memory.” So we've had lots of enriching discussions on these topics through the years, and I know the kinds of compelling insights that you bring to texts, Gina. Before we dive into the book, can you tell us a little more about yourself? Gina: As a woman in my fifties raised in rural Virginia, I cherish the diversity the world has to offer and have spent several years living and working in the Middle East, Africa, and South America. In 2008, I founded Community Consortium and began, with the government of Iraq, a stakeholder-driven management plan and World Heritage nomination for the site of Babylon. A mother of two girls, I appreciate the women who worked and are working to establish a more inclusive and empathetic world, like bell hooks. I received my undergraduate degree from Mary Washington University and a graduate degree from the University of Virginia. As Amy said, I am currently pursuing graduate studies at Stanford University. My research topic is understanding the Power of Place in a township in Zimbabwe. I plan to examine this place through the lens on the colonial government and the contemporary residents. Ultimately, i will understand these two narratives within the story that is being told to tourists about this place today. I have been a Girl Scout leader for 7 years, I love to knit and preserve food from my garden. Amy: Thanks, Gina. It's so great to have you here. Let's now learn a little about the author. Gina, can you tell us about bell hooks? Gina: We are using the biography that bell hooks has chosen to represent herself on the bell hooks institute website. It says: “bell hooks is an acclaimed intellectual, feminist theorist, cultural critic, artist, and writer. hooks has authored over three dozen books and has published works that span several genres, including cultural criticism, personal memoirs, poetry collections, and children's books. Her writings cover topics of gender, race, class, spirituality, teaching, and the significance of media in contemporary culture. Born Gloria Jean Watkins in Hopkinsville, Kentucky, bell hooks adopted the pen name of her maternal great-grandmother, a woman known for speaking her mind. hooks received her B.A. from Stanford University, her M.A. from the University of Wisconsin and her Ph.D. from the University of California, Santa Cruz. Her books include Ain't I a Woman: Black Women and Feminism, Rock My Soul: Black People and Self-Esteem, Teaching to Transgress: Education as the Practice of Freedom, Teaching Community: A Pedagogy of Hope, Where We Stand: Class Matters, We Real Cool: Black Men and Masculinity.” And Feminism Is for Everybody: Passionate Politics--the text we are discussing today. Also interesting to note is that bell hooks does not capitalize her name. On the website of the university where she teaches, Berea College in Kentucky, it explains this choice: “she has chosen the lower case pen name bell hooks, based on the names of her mother and grandmother, to emphasize the...

When was the last time you took a leap of faith in your career? What benefits did you reap out of that jump?There are moments in our lives when our inner voice is asking us to make a change in our careers. At the same time, fear will cross our road, preventing us to take on opportunities that could guide us on the path to success. To challenge that fear, one needs to have faith in themselves, in their abilities acquired up to that point, and just rise to the occasion.Making leaps of faith for your career is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself – and my guest today, Mary Willner, is the perfect example of how having the courage to step out of your comfort zone and take risks pays great results in the end. She shares the lessons she’s learned over the years on how to be a leader, how to build relationships and trust and she also advocates for the importance of not selling ourselves short, even though our inner critique can be powerful sometimes.Mary is currently enjoying her life as a retired tech executive, and prior to this, she has had an amazing career of more than 35 years as a Vice President with Top Fortune 50 companies, including IBM and Intel. She believes that, in order to succeed, you have to get a seat at the table and let your voice be heard – and how else can you do that, if not by going all in, no matter the obstacles?I encourage you to take a small leap of faith right now, and listen to Episode 13 of Roar because I guarantee you it will be worth it! You will learn that regardless of how things turn out, you will get to the other end of the experience stronger, wiser, and more successful because of your willingness to try. Some questions I ask:Tell us a little bit about your background – where are you from? And who were some of your biggest influences growing up? (05:01)What stands out for you as a defining moment that helped you find your roar? (08:36)How have you helped other leaders take those leaps of faith? (14:01)How do you navigate the feeling of failure and really find the way to get up one more time and take that next leap? (18:58)What did you discover about yourself when you took the leaps? What were some of the things that still stick with you today about how to have faith versus fear? (26:21)What does it really mean, as a leader, to be ready to jump? (28:40)In this episode, you will learn:The importance of nurturing your relationships with your clients, customers, and suppliers. (06:41)One of Mary’s biggest realizations when it comes to happiness at work and at home. (10:58)Taking big leaps require having supportive people around you. (12:28)When to apply to a job & What most senior managers are looking for in a candidate. (16:40)The importance of making your homework and provide yourself with a parachute before you jump. (20:35)Why looking for someone to replace you when you decide to leave is the right thing to do both for you and the company you’re working for. (21:49)One example of how small leaps of faith lead to a more significant one.

On Ain't I a Woman: Black Women and Feminism (1981) and Black Looks: Race and Representation (1992, Intro, Ch. 3, 11). How do these pernicious forces interact? hooks describes black women as having been excluded from both mainstream historical feminism (led by white women) and black civil rights struggles (permeated with patriarchy), and this "silencing" creates challenges for self-actualization and social justice. The solution: media critique of stereotyped images and personally connecting to a historical narrative of liberation. With guest Myisha Cherry, host of the UnMute Podcast. End song: "Stories" by Mark Lint and Steve Petrinko (2011).
