Winter Teaching Assignment: The Language of Oppresion

I am pleased to announce that in the Winter, 2012 semester I will be teaching a special topics class titled "The Language of Oppression" in the Communication, Media and Theatre Arts at Eastern Michigan University. This combined graduate/undergraduate class will focus on the language strategies used in promoting such ism's as racism, sexism, ageism, and others. A major part of the course will look at the strategies to move from the language of oppression to the language of liberation.
