@schuyleresprit.bsky.social discussing "Future Proofing the Caribbean Digital" Why Future Proofing?
1) There are Caribbean people in the future
2) The digital provides spaces for play, fugitivity, opacity
3) Code and narrative generate the same space of freedom- imagine communities and possibilities

Xuening Kong showing results of her (freshly minted!) PhD research. Using Sentiment Analysis and Topic Modeling to address research questions. #MSUGlobalDH
Background information My research: *Chinese migrants to the U.S. - Mexico borderlands in the first half of the 20th century *The Chinese migrants engaged non-state agencies to survive and settle down in a foreign land **An important agency: mission churches *'What's diaspora' (on Miriam-Webster Dictionary) *a: the Jews living outside Israel *b: the movement, migration, or scattering of a people away from an established or ancestral homeland Includes a sepia toned picture of a large group of asian people in front of a mission Research Questions: *How did the mission churches give impacts on the Chinese migrants' lives? What did the churches do? >topic modeling *How did the Chinese migrants comment on the role(s) of mission churches in their diasporic lives? >sentiment analysis Qualitative Research *The mission churches effectively fostered a harmonious connection between Christianity and Chinese culture for Chinese borderlanders. *Social welfare embraced by religious groups **On the U.S. side: Racial exclusion **On the Mexican side: warfare and instability *English courses, etiquettes and even Chinese culture. **An example: Mother "Fanton" giving English names to Children in San Diego Includes a sepia toned picture of a small group of asian adults and children in front of a doorway.
