Davila then offers a disruptive reading practice (for writing programs, materials, and values) that readers of this book can use to uproot WLS in their own institutions and programs. The book also includes a heuristic and multiple approaches for uprooting whiteness in various contexts and situations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDavila urges readers to disrupt the status quo, challenge dominant narratives, and create opportunities for marginalized voices to be heard and respected.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eCCCC Studies in Writing \u0026amp; Rhetoric Series\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBethany Davila\u003c\/strong\u003e is an associate professor of rhetoric and writing at the University of New Mexico. Her research focuses on exposing whiteness in first-year writing programs and exploring the relationship between language and identity, particularly through a lens of raciolinguistics.
