Sobre IBD

Toni Morrison’s novels have been frequently taught and frequently honored, earning the Nobel Prize and other awards. They are also frequently challenged and banned, a fact that highlights their power. Centering Black people and their lives, Morrison’s writing pushes readers to reconsider their ideas about canonical American literature. It also rewards engagement with its structural and stylistic creativity and deep historical grounding.This volume offers approaches to teaching Morrison that help students navigate the complexities of her works and find in them ways to make sense of the world. Encouraging instructors and students to reflect on their own racialized identities, essays also emphasize reading in community, whether as collaborative pedagogy, team teaching, or public humanities initiatives, reinforcing the fostering of mutual respect and a community of care. 10
