bell hooks

I don't really even know where to start. She spoke about a lot of very interesting subject matter throughout the clips. In the first part she made the statement that someone who thinks critically can transform regardless of what their background or current situation might be. I believe that an upper middle class individual and a person the grew up in an inner city can have equal amounts of success if they have the drive. If one doesn't think critically about life and what they have to do to rise above their situation...then...of course they wont go anywhere. Does that make sense? An individual who has all the privileges the world has to offer can still fall flat on their face if they don't want something bad enough.
