Discussion – “Coming into Language” Jimmy Santiago Baca
Through his essay “Coming into Language” Jimmy Santiago Baca speaks to educators and students as well as all those who value educational transformation. Baca uses his text to explain how literacy shapes both personal identity and future prospects, especially for underserved community members. He presents his journey to writing victories to spark his audience’s recognition of language as their pathway to empowerment and self-expression. Baca reaches his audience through powerful stories and emotional storytelling that creates compassion and forced reflection (Miller-Cochran et al., 2015). Through sharing personal tales about himself he makes his ideas appealing and persuasive so his audience can understand the challenges of voiceless groups. There are times when certain readers might believe that his extensive use of personal experiences pulls focus from his discussions on educational system problems. Powerful personal stories included in this composition as evidence may prevent some readers from fully accepting the author’s analytical perspective on his subject matter. Baca effectively presents his main purpose of language advocacy, while his presentation of personal elements might benefit from a stronger balance with broader educational critiques.
