BW in National and Global Contexts

By Susan Naomi Bernstein

This paper:

  • Engages metaphors from two major articles published in the Journal of Basic Writing in the 2000s 
  • Situates these metaphors in national and global contexts of the 2000s, and focuses on the aftermath of the 2008 economic crash     
  • Offers a pedagogical narrative that intersects with material realities of settler colonialism 
  •  Invites the audience to consider Basic Writing's social justice imperative and to imagine the Future
