  • Summary

    University of Michigan English & Education graduate student Marquise Griffin recounts a summer internship spent sailing a schooner along the Detroit River and Great Lakes that shaped his understanding of the intersection of blackness, boating, movement, and literacy--particularly being able to read and write oneself as a "water person" of color. He also explores how this experience has deeply informed his own pedagogy of transformative (dis)orientation and (dis)comfort.
