Race, Literacy, and the Value of Rights Rhetoric in Composition Studies.
Bruch, Patrick; Marback, Richard
College Composition and Communication, v53 n4 p651-74 Jun 2002
Takes up Geneva Smitherman's call to renew the fight for language rights by situating the theory of language rights in composition studies in a brief history of rights rhetoric in the United States. Locates the language rights rhetoric of composition studies within larger struggles over the rhetoric of rights in public policy and perception and among critical legal-studies scholars. (SG)
