ARMONDO COLLINS:
Blue Collar Scholar
$ARMONDOCOINS
I am an African American Literature and Rhetoric professor. Here you can read my CV, buy my books, read samples of my academic work, view examples of my public scholarship, and connect with me on social media.
In The Black God Trope, I theorize Black Nationalist rhetorical strategies as an avenue to better understand African American communication practices. I demonstrate how Black communicators use writing about God to create a language that reflects African Americans’ shifting subjectivity within the American experience.
