I’m Here with You and I Hear You: Reflections on Engaging in the Work of Suppressing Histories That Have Oppressed Us

Sharieka Shontae Botex

Abstract

I aim to inspire people to suppress language and practices that oppress people. I engage with scholarship to advocate for learning from suppressed communities. I call for rhetoric and composition scholars to recognize how the existence and progress of oppressed communities require suppressing language and practices that oppress those communities.
