I'd love ...What a wonderful coincidence, Holly. I'd love to see the Disney book. And even if the Disney book represents the ideal Discourse, let's not forget that having a strong vision is essential to organizational change. se we can be critical and sympathetic at the same time....Having said that..., I love your connection with the "dark side" of literacy: how it is often used to "reproduce" inequity and restrictions. Also, you are dead on in your recognition of the power of Discourse and how this power works. (We will develop this in the weeks ahead.) Finally, I love your juxtaposing the social and cultural in the last sentence.
