Description

The “Thought Leaders Weigh Issues of Violence and Reconciliation” article from St. Norbert College Magazine’s Spring 2015 issue recounts a powerful dialogue between author bell hooks and sociologist Beth Richie during hooks’ campus residency. Centered on the theme “Ending Violence: How We Change,” the conversation explored systemic violence, personal accountability, and the transformative potential of love and community. Richie, an advisor to the NFL on domestic violence, and hooks, a renowned social justice scholar, emphasized the need for honest dialogue, healing, and grassroots change—urging individuals to start small, act locally, and build inclusive spaces of understanding and care.
