Joe Miller, assistant professor of writing in Columbus State University’s Department of English, addressed more than 200 attendees at the annual conference of the National Association of State Boards of Education in Kansas City last week. In a moderated talk, Miller answered questions about his first book, titled “Cross-X: The Amazing True Story of How the Most Unlikely Team from the Most Unlikely of Places Overcame Staggering Obstacles at Home and at School to Challenge the Community on Race, Power, and Education,” which chronicles a season with Kansas City Central High School’s debate squad.
