"Drew Carey: Queer Icon": Composition Studies And Queer Theory

Prolific: A Podcast Journey Through Rhetoric, Composition, and Technical Communication

Hello! After two years, Prolific: A Podcast Journey Through Rhetoric, Composition, and Technical Communication makes its triumphant return—and with a new format! This time, the episodes will cover a specific movement within the field, followed by a rundown of crucial texts in the field, key folks in that movement, and then a conversation about that movement with a bunch of other graduate students.? This time around, we focus on queer theory and studies in the field of composition. First, we run through some of the major trends in the field, and I spotlight some great resources for learning more about what early, queer-focused scholarship looked like at that time. Then, I move us into a conversation I had with 4 other graduate students in the Writing, Rhetoric, and American Cultures program at Michigan State University. Sorry about the delay in episodes. If you’re wondering about that, I’ll catch you up on what my life has been like since the last episode!
