Aggies blog about the cultural representation of Black women and the literature they produce. We center the lived experience of the Black woman as represented in literature and the terms and conditions on which she projects her own agency amidst society’s denial of it. We aim to use this place as a site of valuable information, and a space to challenge traditional paradigms about the Black woman’s identity and experience.

In Bell Hooks Selling Hot Pussy it is discussed that the black woman's body is a source of advertisement. It is used to draw in people and helps to sell products. For example, Beyonce and Kim Kardashian are two celebrities whos bodies are glorified! Kim Kardashian is known for her big butt and Beyonce is known for her wonderful curves. It is all about getting the consumers and "selling the product."
