Reading for the Weaver: Amplifying Tribal Women’s Literacies through Material Rhetoric

Nancy Small with Riyaz Bhat

Abstract

Materials compositions, such as textiles, tell stories and act as data carriers. They persist in speaking even as their makers are erased or lost. When information about a maker ceases to be available, applying principles of storytelling and rhetoric facilitates a possible re–reading of a material composition as a process of recentering the human maker.
