Speech Is My Hammer

Arts & Literature

“Speech Is My Hammer seamlessly weaves together poignant personal reflections, historical narrative, literary theory, and critical race theory to address the question of what it means to become fluent in a language and literary tradition that is dedicated to erasing you. This is a must-read for anyone who is interested in thinking carefully about what it means to decolonize the canon and our relationship to it. Bravo!”
