bell hooks is to my mind the mother of much of the current black feminist theory we see today online and beyond. She is endlessly complex and her work is vast in scope. She is simply everything.

bell hooks' body of work taught me that i can just write if I want to. she didn't care about pleasing academia, she cared about her work being accessible and about thinking through all sides of an issue. she taught me that thinking is never in vain, and that writing is an action.

she taught me that there is a way to look at this world and say "there it is, that's what we have to destroy and build from there" when many people were telling me "that's just the way it is." Rest in Power, you gave so much to us, we will follow in your footsteps.

The Will to Change is the most courageous and radical nonfiction i've ever read. just because it deconstructed everything that I knew was cruel about our highly-gendered world but could never express myself. Eternally grateful to and for bell hooks 🥺❤️ rest in power

We are actively searching for innovative ways to lower the bar. We aspire to even less. Less selling, less scaling, less subscriptions, less wealthy saviors. Less growth. Less groundbreaking. Less grifts.

It's a poem. It's a novel. It's a braided essay collection. In fact, it's five of them, and they're interconnected in a way that is also a memoir and a metaphor for humanity. Go for it. You're a Literary Writer. Pump out your beautiful shit and live más.
