Abstract
An investigation into the differences and similarities between local and global literacy forces us to question what constitutes literacy. This issue’s Professional Book Review department focuses on three books that challenge conventional views of global or standardized literacy by highlighting literate practices of formerly colonized or enslaved people. These books emphasize the need to contextualize, rather than standardize, our conceptions of literacy.
