Title: Black Literate Lives
Description: "Author Maisha T. Fisher reinterprets historiographies of Black self-determination and self-reliance to powerfully interrupt stereotypes of African American literacy practices. The book expands the standard definitions of literacy practices to demonstrate the ways in which minority groups keep their cultures and practices alive in the face of oppression, both inside and outside of schools."--Jacket.
