Mind, Body and Soul - Women of Color Conference Keynote

dang...thought this was a too short video...

Europe did not start cattle slavery? So why does Africa has English, france, dutch and belgian colonies. Why do france and the Netherlands still have colonies in South America. Yes it was the Church and the queen of Spain who gave the orders that it was ok to use Africans as slaves to replace the European serfs. Black socialist, white socialist aka liberals are of the same mindset...so be objective...who invented the word RACISM?

Sweden and most of the European countries are socialist which is a more sophisticated form of communism so in that regard they are one and the same. As for slavery...check the history books to find what European countries started slavery and brought it to the new world that is now the United States of America. Communism, Socialism is SLAVERY!

haha shes a nigger...i wanna say that i feel bad for her...but i dont

RezaDemocrat... would you kindly explain what is wrong with that argument?

hooks and Mohanty clearly make sense when they accuse white feminists of speaking on behalf of ALL women... disregarding race and the fact that many black women experience racism before sexism.

By arguing that "Sisterhood" is not global, how is that racist?

ps. I went to the university too.

REZADemocrat: You just might be the dumbest fuck on this community site. Your grammar is horrendous. Please continue to make me laugh with your idiotic postings. Your stupidity makes me glad I went to college. Also, try not to breed. Thank you

Ah! If only I was older!!! I aim to introduce my children (hopefully, I have some) to bell hooks the moment they are old enough to think for themselves...This woman, save perhaps for my mother and my grandmother, has influenced my life beyond my ability to express it with words - unlike her, of course, whose genius, clarity of thought, breath and depth of knowledge, makes her a human wonder: I sometimes feel the propensity to worship her; but I know I would be doing her a disservice.

The bit about learning to understand others rather than blaming them reminds one of the work of Augusto Boal.
