From the publisher

An Interview with bell hooks, author of "Feminism is for Everybody: Passionate Politics"

SOUTH END PRESS: Your work on radical black feminism has been an inspiration for many young feminists of color, and you yourself were in your early 20s when you wrote your first book, "Ain't I a Woman." What differences do you see in the political and cultural climate that young progressive activists face today, compared to when you were formulating your own politics?
