This is a picture I took in Playa del Carmen, Mexico in January. I thought this picture represented literacy in a very global way. Sam's Club is a very American-based company and seeing this company in another country, along with the Spanish language, is a clear example of globalization.
I think literacy could also be present in the actual sign here. I bet there are many people that recognize the logo and words without knowing what the word "club" means. We have worldwide symbols, like McDonalds for example that we interpret without even realizing it.
