Intersectional feminism at its best. It made me aware of my own shortcomings when teaching feminist theory.Understanding feminism as a political commitment rather than an identity treat is utterly important, and this book makes clear why. Reading on her current blog I can see that she maintains most of the statements that she first made in this book, which I have found really helpful in my classroom, research, and approach to a possible change.bell hooks essays changed my life 4 years ago and I will be forever grateful. As she often says: "Patriarchy knows no gender," and these essays are a must for every human being.

Brilliant.
It allowed me to rethinking everything I've always believed feminism to be. It has opened my eyes to so much light.

A good place from where to start
Good book but after reading Talking Back and Ain’t I a Woman it tills familiar ground. Still a good place from where to start reading bell hook's oeuvre. Love her work. So sad to hear of her death two years ago. Thrilled to have seen her live at York University, Toronto,, in Fall 1992.

A timelessness book on feminism
The feminist movement has been the longest global political movement that has yet to be fully implemented among societies. Bell Hooks, from margin to center, is a call to action wherever you have the possibility to build a better world.

Still relevant
The references are dated but, in 2019, hooks’ theory is as relevant as ever. A must read for today and for the future

Brilliant
bell hooks is such an amazing writer. She writes in a way that is understandable without being pretentious and her message is straightforward.
