Description

Bell hooks explores the concept of belonging in relation to place and land ownership, tracing her own journey from Kentucky back to her childhood home. She reflects on the history of black farmers and the importance of local food production, as well as the ongoing impact of racism on housing and economic systems.

Through a series of critical essays, hooks reveals surprising connections between environmental sustainability and the politics of race and class, highlighting the need for a more inclusive vision of belonging that extends beyond geographical boundaries.

This thought-provoking work offers a nuanced examination of the complex relationships between place, identity, and social justice, inviting readers to consider their own understanding of home and community.
