In Art on My Mind, cultural critic bell hooks responds to the ongoing dialogues about producing, exhibiting, and criticizing art and aesthetics in an art world increasingly concerned with identity politics. Always concerned with the liberatory black struggle, hooks positions in her essays on visual politics the ever-present question of how art can be an empowering and revolutionary force within the black community.
