The "Popular Narrative" would be a second favorite cultural story that we tell ourselves in connection with computers and change focuses our equity, opportunity, and access-all characteristics ascribed to the electronic landscape we have constructed on the Internet and to computer use, in general. This landscape, Americans like to believe, is open to everybody-male and female, regaurdless of color, class, or connection. The Hallmark of our Democracy is an example of this.
The "Revised Narrative" would be our cultural experience that tells us America is the land of oppotunity only for some people. That it is present not in what they show, but what they fail to show.
Americans revise the narrative because they want everything to seem better. We want to envision a better world so revising the narrative creates this better place. The consequences of this revision is overlooking those real experiences with an undifferntiated land of opportunity. Meaning we dont see that opportunity is a commondity generally limited to privileged groups.
