Institutionalised Inequities on the Internet Dear Google....

An open letter to Google on knowledge equity through the internet in the Googleverse - partnering for paving a pathway and a level playing platform in the Post Pandemic Planet

Dear Google,

Thank you so very much for the beautifully illuminated GOOGLE candles that greeted me when I opened my favourite internet browser on my birthday....

As I huffed and puffed and tried to blow out them there virtual candles, Dear Google, I wished that in your great reach and might across this universe, that the same privileges and courtesies that you extend to select parts of the world, could be evenly spread, in other less significant and less recognized parts, like these from whence I am....

You see, while I have touted the tremendous potential and opportunities of the internet and new media and social media in leveling the playing field to equalize opportunities and create an equitable platform for all, that is yet to be realised, Dear Google.

The Learning Revolution: MultipleChoice in a MultiCultural Place 1845-20...

MultipleChoice navigates through ethnic & religious dissension to draw readers into layers of the learning fabric & intricately interwoven diverse tracks of knowledge transmission embedded in festivals, rituals, beliefs, languages & lifestyles embroidered on a shared educational, cultural & ecological tapestry. From these Dr Rampersad draws significant lessons for societies newly challenged by multiculturalism.
This unfolds from the canvas of traumas and triumphs of settlement, adaptation & accommodation that faced post-colonial societies of Latin America and the Caribbean. It shifts the focus from lament to praise song in the integration of traditional learning systems into new ones, evolving to meet the challenges of the 21st century. History, heritage & legacies lace research into a fine filigree of oral storytelling & social lore on how the experiences from colonisation may inform the emergence from the pandemic as stronger more resilient societies through technology-driven learning processes & systems that value multicultural traditions.
