Anything We Love Can Be Saved
ByPublisher Description
In Anything We Love Can Be Saved, Alice Walker writes about her life as an activist, in a book rich in the belief that the world is saveable, if only we will act. Speaking from her heart on a wide range of topics--religion and the spirit, feminism and race, families and identity, politics and social change--Walker begins with a moving autobiographical essay in which she describes her own spiritual growth and roots in activism. She goes on to explore many important private and public issues: being a daughter and raising one, dreadlocks, banned books, civil rights, and gender communication. She writes about Zora Neale Hurston and Salman Rushdie and offers advice to Bill Clinton. Here is a wise woman's thoughts as she interacts with the world today, and an important portrait of an activist writer's life.

“Since reading The Colour Purple in 2020, I have learned I am obsessed with Walker’s writing. Seemingly simple and from the heart, she’ll drop profound sentences that stay with you for a lifetime. This collection of letters, speeches, and anecdotes touch on topics like politics, race, social change, and feminism, and is still relevant today. Only docking a star as it’s hard to find a “flow” and connect the stories together.”
