Response to Mona's post

I think literacy is concept that has no one set definition and that will continue to be interpreted differently by individuals. I do think there is a difference between being literate and illiterate. To me being literate, is knowing how to read, write, interpret and understand text and language. Being illiterate is not knowing how to do any of those things and not being able to comprehend what it entails. I do think by reading and understanding the different writers works, we can grasp a better understanding of what it means to be literate and what literacy is.
