Let's Talk About Love | Writing & Reflection Workshop
bell hooks, All About Love
I’m excited to share the next Write & Reflect workshop, exploring the ideas of bell hooks, a woman who has inspired so much of my thinking. As ever, my thanks goes to those of you who subscribe and read this newsletter. Here is early access to signing up to the workshop. I hope to see some of you there :)
“To truly love we must learn to mix various ingredients - care, affection, recognition, respect, commitment and trust, as well as honest and open communication.”
bell hooks, All About Love (p.5)
In this intimate online workshop, we’ll be exploring some of the key ideas in bell hooks’ popular book, All About Love. (Please note, you don’t need to have read the book in order to participate.)
We’ll discuss our understanding of and relationship to love, what society and culture says about love and imagine what would be different if we placed love at the centre of our lives.
We’ll then put pen to paper and you will develop your own love ethic so you can put bell hooks’ theory into practice.
In this workshop we will:
Have a reflective group discussion about All About Love, guided by Sarah, your facilitator.
Write in response to the themes of the discussion (beginners/non-writer friendly!).
Share, listen and learn from each other.
