What's Love Got to Do with It? – Warum Liebe(n) eine gesellschaftliche Notwendigkeit ist. "Dieses Buch, das sich mit der aktuellen Bedeutung der Liebe im Leben der Schwarzen befasst und eine Vorlage für das Überleben und die Selbstbestimmung der Schwarzen bieten soll, führt uns kühn zum Kern der Sache.

Perché abbiamo paura di parlare d’amore? Tutto sull’amore di bell hooks nasce da questa domanda che spesso genera imbarazzo, reticenza, e persino rabbia.
