Cyberghetto or Cybertopia: Race, Class, and Gender on the Internet ReviewThis book reflects and exposes many of the utopian views of theInternet as the rose-filtered fanatical visions that they are. But italso exposes the dystopian visions by showing real efforts at community building, and good effects for real people, coming from the Internet.
We see too many digerati/netizen books that just tout some new ivory tower view of what happens on line. These other books do not often deal with issues like Universal Service, or the inherently classist issues of information haves and have-nots.
This book gives us some reasons that access to the net for "non-traditional," marginalized, or overlooked populations is important, and not well addressed, generally.
For some, this is a vision of how the other half (or less than half, as minorities? ;) lives on -- and often off-line. For some of us, it's validating, and lends depth to the online experience.
If I have a criticism, I didn't see much range of political/social perspectives here. I would have liked to have seen more dialogue among viewpoints, in some cases. But there's only so much room in a print book -- where's the website?!Cyberghetto or Cybertopia: Race, Class, and Gender on the Internet Overview
