Ashe’ ... and so it is!


Words are power. Stories are sources of power: emotional, cerebral; soft and hard.  This advanced course in grammar, composition and literature is designed to build on the foundational course (Paragraphs, Essays, Short Stories, Speeches, Storytellin’). Students deepen in these areas and add research writing to the set. African and African Diasporian literature still is the well from which they drink. They’ll alternate between the foundational text and books from the honors book club.
