I think that’s because of her academic background and how conclusions are often expected to be summary of your entire argument? And honestly for a nonfiction book even as short as her books are that’s not a bad idea but listening to the audiobook you’re kinda just like why are we repeating ourselves we already argued more in-depth and better. Very very good , much better then all about love.

bell hooks holds no punches and really evaluates and critiques on Black men and White women and their historical treatment of Black women.
I’ve read several intersectional feminist books but it was really refreshing to read a book entirely dedicated to Black women.

This is a crucial text, a bedrock text, that I think everyone should read if they are interested in antiracism and understanding the need for intersectionality. hooks writes with such clarity that makes it easy to understand the history of how Black women have been treated in America. I think everyone would benefit from reading this book and that it should be mandatory reading.
