Book Reviews of Where We Stand: Class Matters
Book Review: What I think
Summary: 4 Stars
Class does matter in the world whether we like to admitt it or not. Bell Hooks uses a variety of examples in her life to prove this point. Yes, she does use repetitive examples but there are repetitive issues dealing with race and class going on in the world right now. Thus, it helps prove the point even more.Many people like to state that class does not matter but deep down inside it matters. Hooks' novel is actually very real and it is hard for many people to admit that it is. I think she deserves four stars.Book Review: What I think
Summary: 4 Stars
Bell Hooks uses many experiences in her life to explain her issues with class and race. Her writing style is repetitive at times but I think that it is nessecairy for the point to get across. After all, issues with class and race is a repeating probelm through out her life and our lives. Bell Hooks style of writing helps prove her point even more. I give her four stars for her content, style of writing and interesting stories.Book Review: Class Matters
Summary: 4 Stars
When reading the book I began to realize what social class I am in and how it effects the person I am. I never really thought about how my social class effected me or exactly where I fit into society. It was never an issure for me or my family. Bell Hooks did a good job at describing her social class and how her family never talked about it and how that effected her. I would recommend this book to anyone.Book Review: My thoughts
Summary: 4 Stars
i feel that bell hooks did an excellent job on this book. she presents social class issues in a way that is never thought of by other people. this book really makes you think about where you stand on particular issues (i.e. materialism, social class and the church, etc.). Where We Stand is a very thought-provoking book that deals with social problems in America.Book Review: Class matters...
Summary: 4 Stars
A very exciting book that illustrates how class and race are intertwined in our society today. Hooks masters the art of linking a young black girls personal experiences to gender, race, and class. This is a very intersting book and I recommend buying a copy to read.
