Thanks again to Willaful of "A Willful Woman" for tagging me in a 3 day quote challenge. I'm enjoying reading what bloggers, rather than just authors, consider their favorites!
Here are the rules of the challenge:
• Thank the blogger who nominated you.
• Publish a quote on 3 consecutive days on your blog. The quote can be one of your own, from a book, movie, or from anyone who inspires you.
• Nominate 3 more bloggers each day to carry on this endeavor.
Quote for Day 2: Words from feminist theorist bell hooks, from her Ain't I a Woman: Black Women and Feminism
"The process begins with the individual woman's acceptance that American women, without exception, are socialized to be racist, classist and sexist, in varying degrees, and that labeling ourselves feminists does not change the fact that we must consciously work to rid ourselves of the legacy of negative socialization."
RNFF is my attempt to consciously rid myself of the legacy of negative socialization, and to open dialogue with others interested in doing the same, by reading and thinking about romance novels. Difficult, painful, and often humbling work. But invigorating, challenging, and joyful, as well.
I nominate:
• KJ Charles
• Ruthie Knox
• Laura Florand
