In Episode 16 of A is for Architecture, I speak with Johnny Rodger, Professor of Urban Literature in the Mackintosh School of Architecture at the Glasgow School of Art. We discuss his new book, Key Essays: Mapping the Contemporary in Literature and Culture, published by Routledge in 2021. The written essay has a key role in the education of architects and designers, so understanding its function is a worthwhile endeavour. Johnny addresses this, discussing the essay's identity as a distinct literary form and its function as a critical practice and academic activity. We also touch on ideas of performativity, the capacity of language to effect change in the world, and the idea of ‘the contemporary'. I worked alongside Johnny when up in Glasgow at the School of Art, at an inflection point it now seems, in that fine place. It was good to have him there then, to teach me how to teach and to give me a foot up, which he did. He is a prolific writer, so seek out his other works, and see him lecture live if you can.

You can learn a lot about a person by observing how they respond to adversity.My guest this week is an author/rapper who was once sentenced to 24 years in federal prison. Rather than let that be the end of his story, he’s using his past experience as a tool to teach others and improve the community around him.Through his books and his music, he’s working to help the next generation realize its full potential. Who am I talking about?

My story is not unlike a lot of men and women that came from the struggle. Struggling mother, dead beat dad that I only saw once my whole life. I grew up fast and became independent at an early age. I've lived my whole life surrounded by the things I write about. I have truly seen and done it all. After spending most of my twenties in and out of prison I decided there had to be a better way. I made a change for my kids and for the man above that kept me alive and breathing through it all. I write because I have a creative itch that I feel I will die if I don't scratch. Writing is my air. I am King Benjamin...you can call me KB!
