Belonging: A Culture of Place by bell hooks

3.0

Poorly edited in the extreme. A litany of grammar mistakes and too much repetition between and within the essays. But if you can forgive the book that, it's worth getting through it for bell hooks' meditations on how spatial meanings inform our lives. It offers a refreshing ecological consciousness that goes hand-in-hand with anti-racist practice. It was also insightful to read how Kentucky, and the Southern milieu and landscape more generally, informed her relationship to whiteness.
