About this product
Product Information
In Sisters of the Yam , bell hooks reflects on the ways in which the emotional health of black women has been and continues to be impacted by sexism and racism. Desiring to create a context where black females could both work on their individual efforts for self-actualization while remaining connected to a larger world of collective struggle, hooks articulates the link between self-recovery and political resistance. Both an expression of the joy of self-healing and the need to be ever vigilant in the struggle for equality, Sisters of the Yam continues to speak to the experience of black womanhood.

Reviews
" Sisters of the Yam , with its mixture of personal narrative, cultural critique, brief literary analyses, and plain, old-fashioned, kitchen table common-sense advice, might very well reach beyond the university to the diverse groups of people that have been hooks's 'intended' audience throughout much of her speaking and writing." --Sandra Adell, African American Review (1995) "In Sisters of the Yam , hooks articulates black women's healing as an expression of 'liberatory political practice.' This statement transformed my consciousness as a health activist. By simply caring for myself, I can be a revolutionary. . ." --Sariane Leigh, The Feminist Wire (2012)
