Download or read book Soul Sister written by Bell Hooks and published by . This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sisterhood is powerful, yet so is competition and antagonism between women. In Soul "Sister" bell hooks asks why, now that feminism has begun to make inroads in so many spheres, women seem more hostile and less understanding of each other; and what, if anything, feminists should do about this crisis. In "Soul Sister," hooks considers the causes for increased tension between women ??? including widening economic gaps, persistent racism, and homophobia ??? and shows how the media plays a role in creating divisions between women. She also suggests strategies for reconciliation, and proposes ways to increase harmony and acceptance. Like most of hooks' more recent titles on love and relationships, "Soul Sister "is conversational, direct, powerful, spiritual and written for a multiracial audience. Praise for bell hooks: "It's obvious that in all of hooks' forthright works, from her stunning memoirs to her seminal works on race, gender, art, and education, that for her writing is a moral act." - "Library Journal" "As astute, intrepid cultural critic hooks so eloquently observes, the inner lives of African Americans have been given short shrift in the annals of psychology???so cogent is hooks' thinking, so clarifying her language, that to read her is to set out on the path toward healing." -"Booklist" "The only woman in recent years who is readily identified as a member of that select group known as 'black public intellectuals.'"-"New York Times Book Review"

Download or read book Golden Gulag written by Ruth Wilson Gilmore and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2007-01-08 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1980, the number of people in U.S. prisons has increased more than 450%. Despite a crime rate that has been falling steadily for decades, California has led the way in this explosion, with what a state analyst called "the biggest prison building project in the history of the world." Golden Gulag provides the first detailed explanation for that buildup by looking at how political and economic forces, ranging from global to local, conjoined to produce the prison boom. In an informed and impassioned account, Ruth Wilson Gilmore examines this issue through statewide, rural, and urban perspectives to explain how the expansion developed from surpluses of finance capital, labor, land, and state capacity. Detailing crises that hit California’s economy with particular ferocity, she argues that defeats of radical struggles, weakening of labor, and shifting patterns of capital investment have been key conditions for prison growth. The results—a vast and expensive prison system, a huge number of incarcerated young people of color, and the increase in punitive justice such as the "three strikes" law—pose profound and troubling questions for the future of California, the United States, and the world. Golden Gulag provides a rich context for this complex dilemma, and at the same time challenges many cherished assumptions about who benefits and who suffers from the state’s commitment to prison expansion.
