What is sensuous knowledge?

In the opening week of Sensuous Knowledge: A Black Feminist Course for Everyone, Minna Salami breaks down what sensuous knowledge is. Simply, she says, "it's really a much fuller description [of the world]. And the idea here is that if we can apply this to something as mundane as what we have for breakfast or lunch, then we can then start to think about it with issues that are of deep, urgent importance to us, individually or collectively."
