Bringing together the voices of leading and emerging scholars, this
volume highlights the many facets of Black girls' literacies. As a
comprehensive survey of the research, theories, and practices that
highlight the literacies of Black girls and women in diverse
spaces, the text addresses how sustaining and advancing their
literacy achievement in and outside the classroom traverses the
multiple dimensions of writing, comprehending literature, digital
media, and community engagement. The Black Girls' Literacies
Framework lays a foundation for the understanding of Black girl
epistemologies as multi-layered, nuanced, and complex. The authors
in this volume draw on their collective yet individual experiences
as Black women scholars and teacher educators to share ways to
transform the identity development of Black girls within and beyond
official school contexts. Addressing historical and contemporary
issues within the broader context of inclusive education, chapters
highlight empowering pedagogies and practices. In between chapters,
the book features four "Kitchen Table Talk" conversations among
contributors and leading Black women scholars, representing the
rich history of spaces where Black women come together to share
experiences and assert their voices. A crucial resource for
educators, researchers, professors, and graduate students in
language and literacy education, this book offers readers a fuller
vision of the roles of literacy and English educators in the work
to undo educational wrongs against Black girls and women and to
create inclusive spaces that acknowledge the legitimacy and value
of Black girls' literacies.
