Dear All,

I've often used clips from a variety of films to show
a lack of literacy and the acquisition of literacy, as
well as how non-literates are treated. Among these
are, The Colour Purple, Spices (an Indian film),
Anpadh (Indian film), there was a film with Jane Fonda
and DeNiro, and others.

All these opened up dialogue on learners' perceptions
of self, experiences, nods of recognition etc.

Regards
Ujwala
