Cristina Ramirez
PhD - Rhetoric and Writing Studies
In the fifteen years I've been teaching along the US / Mexico border, I have come to believe that the momentum of the knowledge we share should result in positive action. Teaching students about the power of discourse and how it can shift their realities contributes to part of the action pedagogy I profess.
Teaching
The youth of this nation paves our path to the future. I strive to teach my students how they can change the world they live in, and engage that world through writing.
Research
Many valid and poignant voices from history have been silenced or repressed. My research focuses on recovering the rhetorics of Mexican women journalists writing from 1876 - 1940.
About Me
Viviendo en dos mundos - Having lived along the US / Mexico border for eighteen years, I carry a unique perspective and a deep understanding of two cultures clashing, coming together, and becoming one.
