| Homework: How is knowledge power? How does literacy and access to literacy play part in power? Who has the power? What power do you have—or conversely, don’t have? How has that contributed to your literacy narrative? |
Help Received: copied the prompt from the syllabus
Knowledge enables people to think freely, thus giving them power. Literacy and access to literacy gives the ability to gain knowledge, which gives power. Currently the “white man” has power because history is written about them. I have the ability to gain power and read. The power that I currently have is my experiences. These experiences help to define my literacy narrative.
