Literacy Stewardship: Dakelh Women Composing Culture

Alanna Frost

Abstract

This essay suggests a companion term to literacy sponsors that better mirrors the practice and protection of traditional literacies evident in the cases of two Dakelh elders. Literacy steward introduces a theoretical means to describe community members whose rhetorical decisions depend on traditions that are alternative to dominant literacies.
