Literacy as power. Think about that for a second. Have you ever thought about that? What gives you power in this world. Is it money? Well if you have enough yes. But what matters most is literacy. Literacy of a two things is extremely important: language and technology. Language is needed to have any kind of say in this world. It is how ideas are explained and communicated between parties. It is impossible to function without the use of language. How is it that one can explain needs or wants or ideas to another without the use of language? Language is not only is a main component for power, but also for who we are. Without our ideas being communicated and other ideas impacting us, then who would we be? We'd be depressed, because we wouldn't be able to tell others who we are and how we feel. We'd be one-sided, because we'd only see one side. Language is so much more than power.
Technology is what really gives us the ability to express our power of language. It shares our ideas not only with close friends, but also the world. The power that technology has given us is amazing! A great understanding of technology can also make us even more powerful! Just take the group Anonymous for example and look at everything they have done. It is quite amazing how a group of people who have never met and have no idea who each other is can accomplish so much! Just an understanding of technology and cause is what makes them successful.
It is quite extrodinary.
Even revolutionary.
