Race: The Absent Presence in Composition Studies

Catherine Prendergast

Abstract

What composition studies can take from critical race theory is an awareness that if we are to understand the mechanisms (like racism) that prevent some students from being heard, we need to recognize that our rhetoric is one which continually inscribes our students as foreigners. (Prendergast 51).
