Johnson connects the columbine massacre to fun, violent ryhmes from the playground that hated everything about school when he was young. He conjectures that bringing this rebellion and laughter into lesson plans will increase student participation and make rhetoric and composition a less painful experience for students cultivating their speech patterns and political opinions outside of the classroom wanting acceptance. Who here is familiar with the negative word = indoctrination=the idea your identity has been taken from you. transmogrified your integrity. the playground poems about the principle shaving genital warts off his face for sucking his wifes dick. robbed of his speakerphone or whistle. a bankrupt asshole self disciplined about sitting on the flag pole in the school yard. Pink floyd =lynching the school master for mocking the rock star as a child. Making a bonfire of school desks, The manufactured faces of children morphed of their distinction in mask, complacent in the school chair on the conveyer belt taking them to the meat grinder. Students hate the critical thinking skills that make them feel like retards - cant do anything!. Rules and mechanics make rhetoric and composition an enemy, choices that sabotage us when we argue = uncarefully -.
Sounds ignorant because it is for a formal blog or classroom discussion. Its disorganized and there is ugly content, and I edited some of the "sonic" nonsense out of it, or in other words, removed some of its rawness. it is not the kind of renegade rhetoric that is useful for a teacher in the classroom because it is likely to scare and offend people, but it finds a way past repeating what other writers, and peers say to find my own thoughts. The poem activities that Johnson and his colleague practiced do this without creating hostility, or abusive behavior that keeps students from learning composition, and developing appropriate skills for communicating their ideas. The paragraph above exemplifies something close to what gorgias ad cixous are recognized for, and presents how much careful consideration is needed in bringing rebellion, magic, pain, and laughter to the classroom.
