It includes forty original essays from authors who represent a range of classes, genders, races, ethnicities, ages, and occupations across the United States. Born into poverty, working class, the middle class, and the owning class-and every place in between - the contributors describe their class journeys in narrative form, recounting one or two key stories that illustrate their growing awareness of class and their place, changing or stable, within the class system. The stories in Class Lives are both gripping and moving. One contributor grows up in hunger and as an adult becomes an advocate for the poor and homeless. Another acknowledges the truth that her working-class father's achievements afforded her and the rest of the family access to people with power. A gifted child from a working-class home soon understands that intelligence is a commodity but finds his background incompatible with his aspirations and so attempts to divide his life into separate worlds. Together, these essays form a powerful narrative about the experience of class and the importance of learning about classism, class cultures, and the intersections of class, race, and gender. Class Lives will be a helpful resource for students, teachers, sociologists, diversity trainers, activists, and a general audience. It will leave readers with an appreciation of the poignancy and power of class and the journeys that Americans grapple with on a daily basis. 606 $aClass consciousness$zUnited States 606 $aSocial classes$zUnited States 606 $aIntergroup relations$zUnited States 615 0$aClass consciousness 615 0$aSocial classes 615 0$aIntergroup relations 676 $a305.50973 702 $aCollins$b Chuck$f1959- 712 02$aClass Action (Organization), 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910787269303321 996 $aClass lives$93682322 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01287nam a22003131i 4500 001 991000811309707536 005 20241122173227.0 008 021030s1990 it ||||er|||||||1|||ita d 020 $a8878350125 035 $ab12058609-39ule_inst 035 $aARCHE-014840$9ExL 040 $aDip.to Filologia Ling. e Lett.$bita$cA.t.i.
