All About Love - A Gathering!
Manage episode 307081055 series 2786472
Hello Everyone!
Thank you for tuning in to Episode 7 of Season 2 of Semiscribbled Podcast.
In this episode, I talk about All About Love: New Visions by bell hooks.
This book gathered me. I want you to read this book. To open your horizons about what love is and how it manifests, what makes sense about love according to your social conditioning, and what love can be if you allow yourself to be open to the possibilities that it embodies. This book has often been described as being about romantic love but in my reading of this book, I found that love begins way before we find our romantic partners, and to be able to love those partners well we must embody love is in so many other facets of our lives. This book is a road map towards that.
The Something to Note section is a commentary. A clip in that section is from the Booker Prize Ceremony here.
