social justice and crisis communication during disaster
Conference on College Composition and Communication of the National Council of Teachers of English
"This book recognizes local knowledge and marginalized perspectives during disasters to create opportunities for tackling social injustices in post-disaster situations. With grounded case studies of the 2015 Nepal earthquake and 2017 Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico, Baniya showcases how locals in marginalized and colonized spaces overcome disaster-created complexities via coalitional and transnational engagements. Ultimately, this project illustrates how technical communicators can perform transdisciplinary disaster management research to minimize the impacts of catastrophic disasters affecting the world's most vulnerable populations."--Provided by publisher.
