Synopsis:

As an inquiry into the prospects of developing a direct link between the teaching of writing and the public sphere, the chapters in this volume bring together critical practices and social actions that have consequences for activist work. As a whole, these chapters show composition studies extending the activist project of linking literacy education to social change by boldly proclaiming that effective citizens use reading and writing everyday to critically interrogate, and rhetorically intervene in, public affairs in which matters of justice and equality are of great concern.
