Love: From Falling to Choosing

HOW TO SURVIVE THE END OF THE WORLD
About this episode

bell hooks offers us the wisdom that “love is an act of will, both an intention and an action.” in this episode the brown sisters explore hooks’ critique of the idea that we “fall in love”, the difference between falling in love and choosing to love, and how distinguishing between the two helps us to love in a way that protects and liberates the heart.
