- The early feminist movement was dedicated to the proposition that the personal is political-an insight that has come to be increasingly mocked and ridiculed. In their careers, renowned scholar, poet, and author bell hooks and Emmy-winning television writer and creator of Transparent Jill Soloway have countered this trend, making strong use of the autobiographical to generate critical discourse and awareness of injustice. In this conversation, hooks and Soloway discuss their excavations of the personal and its politics, and how this search strengthens liberation efforts rather than diminish them.

THE MOMENT BELL HOOKS SHUTS DOWN THE FIRST PERSON WHO ASKED A QUESTION- WHITE MAN- WAS. GOLDEN.
I wish I could visit bell at her institute. It is a life goal of mine :)
This is what women do. Fun and witt.
1:16:30 so true what she says about being denied wholeness. I have friends like that who have become activists but that's really all just they are about; activism. It's so dehumanising after a while, I just couldn't relate to them anymore. I didn't want to either.
What the hell was wrong with that first guy at the q&a? Completely inappropriate, narcissistic bullshit. Get a clue!
so much wisdom, so much fun
bell looking so cute with her fro and outfit! #LovinIt
She's a Marxist collectivist
What a legend
Joseph G Were all collectivists knobend.
The moment anyone dismisses anyone else's point of you, or worse yet categorically dismisses an entire group they have stopped learning. "Not all female gazes are interesting". Nothing more than a cozy reaffirmation of a cozy rightness. It doesn''t matter how much you've sufferred - you can spend an eternity in hell or heaven and if you have lost the ability to listen, be curious, then you're commited to your stunted perceptions.
Saddened to hear Jill Soloway tell an anti-semitic joke in what is otherwise a lovely discussion.
That was SO rude how she shut that guy down like that.
Lol. The dude spent eons talking about himself. I'd shut his ass down too.
YOU RIGHT.
bell doesn't look well. hope she isn't ill.
Jill Stalinoway. Femistalin.
This is very clever and observant; it's clear that what these women really want is to put all men and straight people into gulags, it's EXACTLY like facism, because they are FORCING one group of people to care about other people that they would normally not care about; most of the people in the audience are actually tied to their chairs. So cruel.
