Racing Climate Change

'Race,' Women, and the Struggle for Safety in a Warming World

The planet is warming. The right to safety remains unequal.

A woman works through dangerous heat because stopping means losing her income. A coastal community moves inland, only to discover that new houses do not guarantee water, livelihoods, or a functioning school. A migrant cares for another family while immigration rules keep her own apart.

In Racing Climate Change, these everyday struggles reveal how climate disasters become social crises. Focusing on tropical regions and women in the Global South, the book examines how heat, rising seas, floods, droughts, and fires interact with racial inequality, caste, gender, and colonial histories.

From Garífuna territorial struggles in Honduras to community relocation in Panama and Fiji, the analysis follows people defending their homes, negotiating change, and confronting institutions that control access to protection. It also examines the guarded promises of cooler countries, where demand for migrant labor coexists with exclusion and anti-immigration politics.

Written for general readers, this book asks who benefits when the costs of survival fall on those with the least power, and how collective action can change those arrangements. Who gets the means to stay? Who gets permission to move? And who must keep waiting for a livable future?

When Maya’s job application is silently rejected, she isn't given an interview, a contact name, or an explanation. She is left staring at a gap on her résumé where she cared for her aging mother, a life reduced to a single row in a database, deemed a "poor match" by an automated gatekeeper.

In When AI Gets You Wrong, Dr. M. Seenarine delivers a clear-eyed, urgent examination of how automated systems, language models, and predictive algorithms shape the modern human experience. From automated hiring and clinical healthcare predictions to social media polarization and AI companions, artificial intelligence is increasingly used to judge our worth, allocate public resources, and decide who gets access to essential opportunities. 

Through compelling real-world cases, rigorous analysis, and human-centered stories, Dr. Seenarine traces the journey of data across four critical stages:

- How the World Becomes Data: Why complex lives, employment gaps, and historical inequalities translate poorly into spreadsheets and web crawls.

- How Data Becomes Judgment: How shortcut learning, biased benchmark tests, instruction authority failures, and "hallucinations" convert incomplete evidence into automated authority.

- When Judgment Reaches You: The real-world consequences on employment, housing, healthcare, credit, and digital safety, and why those with the fewest resources bear the heaviest burden of machine error.

- What Better Would Require: Moving beyond technical "quick fixes" toward true contestability, data governance, and the fundamental right to question the machine.

When AI Gets You Wrong is an indispensable guide for anyone who has ever been categorized, scored, or turned away by a computer, and a vital call to action for building a future where technology serves human needs rather than automating historical injustice.

This book introduces AI bias through familiar experiences: social media feeds, college admissions, job applications, classroom tools, and image generators. It requires no coding or advanced mathematics. The book examines how bias enters AI systems, how it affects people, and what individuals, institutions, companies, and governments can do about it. It connects technical concepts with questions about identity, inequality, accountability, and democratic participation.

Making AI Socially Responsible

An AI answer can sound neutral while carrying the assumptions of a biased record, a narrow source archive, or an institution that cannot be challenged. Who gets heard, and who bears the cost when the answer is wrong?

Artificial Social Intelligence: Making AI Socially Responsible examines how AI bias affects women and marginalized communities in employment, language technology, search, and everyday answers. Drawing on sociological theory and documented studies, the book follows bias from data collection through generation, institutional use, and repair. It also examines black boxes and the promise and limits of model cards, audits, standards, and regulation.

Five questions guide the reader: What can be known? Who is heard? What does the answer do? Who can decide? What happens after harm? Together, they offer a way to judge both the answer on the screen and the organizations behind it.

Written for students, educators, researchers, AI developers, and community advocates, this book makes the case for AI systems that can be questioned, corrected, and held responsible.

Now those same gifts test their trust in one another, especially when Turey’s dreams echo the prophecies of the father she refuses to forgive.

At home, their mother, Iguanamá, and the Women’s Council struggle to protect their community as warriors raid neighboring villages and challenge the women’s authority. A sacred zemí becomes the center of a growing dispute, while signs of upheaval gather across the island.

Summary

In a future ravaged by climate change, a ragged collection of 40 women and children face the daunting challenge of escaping extreme heat and dwindling resources. The triple-digit temperatures of Spring are relentless, pushing their endurance to the limits as they trek north in search of safety.

Their migration is fraught with perils. The terrain is desolate, marked by the harsh impacts of climate change: arid deserts, cracked Earth, and scarce vegetation. Water sources are few and far between, making every drop precious. Exhausted and parched, the climate refugees must rely on their resourcefulness and fortitude to survive.

As they move north, they stumble upon remnants of old civilization - abandoned cities, broken infrastructure, and the occasional solitary survivor. These happenstances represent both promise and danger. They also encounter new settlements and communities, some offering refuge or trade opportunities while others pose threats.

Their expedition is not just a physical challenge but a social one. The ragtag assembly must maintain cohesion and morale despite the stress and hardships. Leadership and cooperation are crucial as they navigate their harsh world while holding onto the possibility of a better future.

Ultimately, their survival depends on their ability to adapt to the changing environment, find resources, and support each other in their quest for safety and stability.
