I hope to get some advice from people with life experience related to the following characters with diverse cultural backgrounds:
- Sarah – A female Afro-American high school student. She has been driven from her beloved beach condo by rising seas.
- JanetA – An artificial intelligence who has had extensive training to live with Sarah as symbionts. She is also incorporated and thereby a corporate person.
- Dea – A middle-aged Afro-American woman who has been driven from her ancestral home in the Mississippi delta by salt intrusion. She now cooks for large numbers of people.
- Mick Roanhorse – A young man and member of the Navajo Nation. A teller of stories.
- Batannie -- A native African young man from the area around Mount Kilimanjaro. He is trying to understand the Serengeti.
- Iranga – A young person from Sri Lanka who is much concerned about the plight of elephants.
- Bibba – A female anthropology student in Europe. She has made a study of the power of stories.
- Aadya – A young Moslem woman in Bangladesh who is studying to administer refugee camps.
- Bangladesh farmer – An older man driven from his ancestral land by salt intrusion. Farther of Aadya and a Moslem.
- Chief Petty Officer Kenneth B. Jones – A white middle-aged man and member of the United States Navy.
We also need someone who can do a little Wit.ai. I cannot get through the sign-in. We have a short story, “Southern Ice”, that would make a good example. Please let me know if you would like to see it.
