AfricanAmerican Literacies is a personal, public and political exploration of the problems faced by student writers from the AfricanAmerican Vernacular English (AAVE) culture.Drawing on personal experience, Elaine Richardson provides a compelling account of the language and literacy practices of AfricanAmerican students. The book analyses the problems encountered by the teachers of AAVE speakers, and offers African American centred theories and pedagogical methods of addressing these problems. Richardson builds on recent research to argue that teachers need not only to recognise the value and importance of AfricanAmerican culture, but also to use AfricanAmerican English when teaching AAVE speakers standard English.AfricanAmerican Literacies offers a holistic and culturally relevant approach to literacy education, and is essential reading for anyone with an interest in the literacy practices of AfricanAmerican students.
