if i were to do anything differently, i probably would've planned to spend the day outside and to reconnect with nature but i did get a lot of work done at home! #eme4390m2022
not having to constantly check notifications or the news was shockingly a very freeing feeling as i can tend to get overwhelmed with negative emotions looking at the news constantly given the current state of the world, i enjoyed my time disconnected #eme4390m2022
i do recommend turning off all electronics for maybe 2 hours a day! if you can of course, i know i have to use technology for workdays but maybe on weekends. it helps clear your mind a bit, i do think i felt a lot less anxious #eme4390m2022
to be honest, it was difficult not using technology to occupy my mind. gave me a lot of time to think and reflect, which in retrospect, im very grateful for #eme4390m2022
im back online and it was difficult but i found better ways to make use of my time! i started reading a book ive been putting off for so long and deep cleaned my closet as well as got a lot of laundry done! #eme4390m2022
2/2 stated by the author: "Discussions about race and cultural identity is a very delicate, but very necessary, matter." when people of color discuss their experiences & exposure to racism, its important to listen and most importantly to not invalidate or belittle #eme4390m2022
in the online space, the voices of people of color are more likely to be stifled in discussions. in "we are not the same: race and the internet" the author describes how we cling to our own personal history & tend to impose our views upon others 1/2 #eme4390m2022
in a society where people of color are at a higher risk of police brutality and instances of mistaken identity, facial recognition software proving to have gender and racial bias could spell out dangerous consequences as a result of those detection errors #eme4390m2022
is it possible for AI to experience racial and gender bias? according to https://t.co/FNSGCQTxZF the answer is yes. the author describes how AI failed to correctly identify faces of black women & men. this is terrifying to consider for facial recognition technology #eme4390m2022
in "why race matters on the internet" we are reminded of the treatment of marginalized groups such as people of color on the internet, including how it can limit or enhance their voice in political discussions and decision making #eme4390m2022
as an increasingly more digital society, (in order to apply for most jobs you need internet access or an email account) there is an increasing dilemma about the inequity of social media as well as the internet. #eme4390m2022
