Bell Hooks on the Big Screen

HCC will commemorate Women’s History Month, joining other community organizations, in remembering the legacy of Hopkinsville native, Gloria Jean Watkins, known by her nom de plume bell hooks with “bell hooks on the big screen”. According to Dr. John Davis, history professor at HCC, the college will host a screening of hooks interviews and discussion each Tuesday in March at noon, with the exception of March 8. Each week’s video presentation will be followed by an audience discussion facilitated by HCC faculty. The screenings will be in Thomas L. Riley Hall in the Auditorium Building on the college campus from noon until 1:00 each week. A light refreshment will be provided. The event is free and open to all. COVID protocols will be observed, and attendees are asked to wear a mask.

The series is sponsored by HCC’s History Club, Religion & Philosophy Club and the HCC Office of Student Engagement.
