Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This essay asserts that the question of belonging in the Canadian nation is of primary concern to people of colour. Due to an historical legacy of colonialism and imperialism, people of colour in general are devalued, their cultures are stigmatised and they are economically exploited. The author delineates the typical responses of people of colour to this predicament and shows how these responses differ among different generations. The author argues that these differences are primarily due to the fact that the second and subsequent generations do not have a home other than Canada while the first generation retain some attachment to their country of origin. The author discusses how the problems of women of colour are compounded because of sexism within their own ethnic groups and in the Canadian society at large. Some of the reactions of the mainstream Canadians to the predicament of people of colour are also discussed.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
