Black Technical and Professional Communication
(Special Event)
Black Technical and Professional Communication
A Virtual Panel
A coalition of Black scholars in technical and professional communication offer their perspectives on defining Black technical and professional communication; advocating for the inclusion of Black perspectives in the body of mainstream disciplinary scholarship and pedagogical practice; and carving out the methodological, theoretical, and practical space that will enable other Black scholars, teachers, and practitioners in the field to see and do such work.
The featured speakers are members of the Conference on College Composition and Communication (CCCC) Black Technical and Professional Communication Task Force, who worked on this CCCC Black Technical and Professional Communication Position Statement with Resource Guide: https://cccc.ncte.org/cccc/black-technical-professional-communication?fbclid=IwAR3zIQE2AwKYrDjBl0hJO2dFn9JNMrMMV4FECO3I918bsYTrPIApcJSSiRo
