View Abstract / Biocfplist.com

I advocate human rights with critical hermeneutics: to teach peace through transformative literary works, transformational learning style, to facilitate through reflective practice 

 Transformation, a concentration on curiosity, solitude, and self development through writing, is the representation of the themes in my papers, workshops, seminars, and symposium proceedings: interior self and complexity.    I advocate human rights with critical hermeneutics 

I write about Cultural Poetics to share the importance of the writing of African American authors and Global authors and film makers. My work in the area of conferences and articles and books encompasses the many important issues that are being addressed in this area to foster justice literacy and peace.
