Discourse in Black

Viac o knihe

The collection showcases Keith Gilyard's influential prose, emphasizing the significance of African American Vernacular English (AAVE) in education and cultural identity. It includes "Voices of the Self," which advocates for linguistic pluralism, and "Let's Flip the Script," a series of essays on language and politics. In "Liberation Memories," Gilyard examines the intersection of rhetoric and poetics in African American literature, particularly through the works of John Oliver Killens. These texts serve as vital resources for discussions on Black language as a transformative force.
