Francoise, Delpit was criticizing people who can only validate
something if it's explained through words. I had a similar
situation in my department here--a student who taught in a
business environment developed a very impressive set of
instructional materials and a professor would not accept
it unless she accompanied it with a 20 page paper explaining
how she'd developed them--the materials themselves were
insufficient. He needed written evidence of her thought
processes before he'd accept it.
