The purpose of this blog is to improve our analysis of, and response to, the readings in ENG 233: African American Literature. Communication, in all its forms, is central to the human experience. Blogging should provide the class with opportunities to practice and improve their ability to communicate clearly and concisely about complicated and sensitive topics prior to in-class discussions. My personal goals regarding this blog are to improve and extend my online writing abilities.
I am a senior at the University of Redlands, majoring in English and minoring in mathematics. I grew up on the Chumash Reservation near Cal Lu, though my family is actually from the Rosebud Reservation on Pine Ridge in South Dakota. I have spent the last seven years working as a professional journalist, (mostly in the arena of sports) though I am currently pursuing a dual teaching credential with the intention of switching careers.
