For many of our students, sports, video games, television, movies, and pop music form the fabric of their dominant culture. Just as we would never tell a student that she could not write about mariachis, we might consider biting out tongues when she wants to write about whatever latest heartthrob is on the top ten. Our students need to know that we value their lives, all of what goes on in their lives, in order to feel that they can bring and share those lives with their writing in the classroom.
