Imagining Freedom: Cultural Rhetorics, Digital Literacies, and Podcasting in Prison

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

This article examines how individuals experiencing incarceration inside jails and prisons use tenets of cultural rhetorics and digital literacies to reshape understand-ings about composition students and how they make knowledge to envision and practice freedom inside unconventional educational spaces. By primarily analyzing the prison podcast Ear Hustle, the author addresses how incarcerated people turn to podcasting not only to sharpen their composing skills but also to build literate communities inside demoralizing environments.
