Reading and Writing, when done effectively, is a series of consecutive acts of surrender. We surrender to the ideas entrusted to our care that those for whom they are intended may receive them with the least interference possible. This class blog will serve as witness to both our engagement with and detachment from the ideas waiting for us as midwives in African American Literature.

Be sure to include details that we would not find out looking at you or by reading your resumé. Be sure to respond substantively to at least two classmates posts with a favorite quote or a little something extra, checking to ensure that everyone gets a reply - not just the first five to post. If you build it (community) we will thrive. Welcome aboard!
CAUTION: Spell & grammar check everything BEFORE posting. Unedited, unsupported posts will not receive credit.
As will be the custom throughout our time together, for full credit, two (2) paragraph-length, four-sentence PREPed responses to two (2) classmates are required each time you post.
