[please post]

The digital divide is not binary, but complex, and many sectors in society 
need to be heard from in order to understand this phenomenon to overcome 
it.

Eight lectures examining digital divides in college sports, social work, the 
unemployment line, libraries, broadband, neighborhoods and more will be 
streaming online starting November 20 and ending with an 8-hour marathon 
on November 27.  Each lecture is an hour long.
