[An] intelligently critical, inclusive, personal and very accessible feminist polemic... A very good book, promoting a feminism which includes women of all classes and colours, and which does not exclude men either. The experience of ordinary people, rather than largely white female academics, is at its heart. Still very relevant, and recommended. Theory.orgFeminist Theory established bell hooks as one of international feminisms most challenging and influential voices. This edition includes a new preface by the author, reflecting on the books impact and the development of her ideas since it was first published. In this beautifully written and carefully argued work, hooks maintains that mainstream feminisms reliance on white, middleclass, and professional spokeswomen obscures the involvement, leadership, and centrality of women of colour and poor women in the movement for womens liberation. Hooks argues that feminisms goal of seeking credibility and acceptance on already existing ground rather than demanding the lasting and more fundamental transformation of society has shortchanged the movement.A sweeping examination of the core issues of sexual politics, Feminist Theory argues that contemporary feminists must acknowledge the full complexity and diversity of womens experience to create a mass movement to end womens oppression.
