In this book, Perryman-Clark [...] pushes our notions about what might constitute a common approach into a fresh new space by putting an Afrocentric worldview at the center of a writing curriculum that teaches students to value 'all' languages and language practices. [...] This is important, forward-thinking scholarship that all teachers, administrators and graduate teachers should take seriously.
