Nathaniel I. Cordova

Teaches courses in Contemporary Rhetorical Theory, Latino Discourse, Rhetoric of Religion, and Race, Ethnicity and the Public Sphere. His primary areas of research revolve around issues of political subjectivity, public memory, public moral argument, and Puerto Rican political identity. His interest and commitment to American Ethnic Studies stems from his professional work in social services serving traditionally underrepresented communities, his own experiences of cultural hybridity, and his commitment to social justice.
