Abstract | The indigenous rhetoric of the Plateau Indians continues to exert a discursive influence on student writing in reservation schools today. Plateau students score low on state-mandated tests and on college writing assignments, in large part because the pervasive personalization of Plateau rhetoric runs counter to the depersonalization of academic argument. Yet, we can teach writing in ways that honor all students'--and not just Plateau students'--"rhetorical sovereignty" even as we prepare them for academic writing. (Contains 4 notes.) (As Provided). |
