I don't really think about it as often as probably should but that's mostly because I don't really wanna equate someone's worth with how much money they make as opposed to their personality and the kinds of movies they like and stuff like that.]]> 2018-10-10 19:09:33 UTC https://padlet.com/christinacatlett/3q9006tf14b9/wish/291441882 https://padlet.com/christinacatlett/3q9006tf14b9/wish/291442132 Going to an expensive high school but not being part of the class of the majority has always made me very confused about my class since I have lots of educational privilege but not a lot of economic privilege

How do we deal with the guilt of our whiteness?]]> 2018-10-10 19:10:15 UTC https://padlet.com/christinacatlett/3q9006tf14b9/wish/291442236 https://padlet.com/christinacatlett/3q9006tf14b9/wish/291442260 it’s frusturating for me when people group the upper upper class with the upper middle class because i know i am well off but my dad works very hard for his money and he is not making a million dollars a year. however, a lot of times it’s hard for me to address this frustration because there’s no real negative effect of me being grouped into the wrong catergory since i am privileged nonetheless. i do feel however it diminishes my families hard work, so it makes me really uncomfortable when people call me “rich”]]> 2018-10-10 19:10:19 UTC https://padlet.com/christinacatlett/3q9006tf14b9/wish/291442260 https://padlet.com/christinacatlett/3q9006tf14b9/wish/291442330 I definitely think that the regional disparity between people who attend Scripps and the Claremont Consortium is a powerful mechanism in the recognition of class and the different perceptions of class that exist in different communities. However, the colleges and the city of Claremont still effectively create a socioeconomic bubble that needs to be recognized and remediated through excursions to other communities within the region in order to truly perceive our current privilege.]]> 2018-10-10 19:10:28 UTC https://padlet.com/christinacatlett/3q9006tf14b9/wish/291442330 https://padlet.com/christinacatlett/3q9006tf14b9/wish/291442503 2018-10-10 19:10:51 UTC https://padlet.com/christinacatlett/3q9006tf14b9/wish/291442503 https://padlet.com/christinacatlett/3q9006tf14b9/wish/291442584 I think it’s when you recognise your privilege of belonging to a certain class/race/religion and use your privilege to help others that you don’t feel shame of your background but rather that it’s your moral/social responsibility to share your resources ]]> 2018-10-10 19:11:02 UTC https://padlet.com/christinacatlett/3q9006tf14b9/wish/291442584 https://padlet.com/christinacatlett/3q9006tf14b9/wish/291442701 class is a really frustrating topic to talk about lol being a lower class POC in white spaces upper class spaces can be really difficult b/c comments have been made to me that’s its been “easier” for me to get into these spaces cuz of affirmative action when In reality I had work twice as hard and didn’t have the same resources like tutoring that $$ can buy ! but at the same time I feel like ppl aren’t more or less deserving of what class their in, it’s not something that ppl can really control so I don’t think ppl should feel bad ! idk :)]]> 2018-10-10 19:11:18 UTC https://padlet.com/christinacatlett/3q9006tf14b9/wish/291442701 https://padlet.com/christinacatlett/3q9006tf14b9/wish/291442948 I think that your perceptions of class are very affected by the different classes you’re exposed to in real life, whereas it is more difficult to fully understand class’s implications when your exposure to it is only through media.]]> 2018-10-10 19:11:49 UTC https://padlet.com/christinacatlett/3q9006tf14b9/wish/291442948 https://padlet.com/christinacatlett/3q9006tf14b9/wish/291443057 I come from an upperclass  family and all of the privileges that come with that (education, comfort, connections) but my parent have always insisted that I make and spend my own money. I got my first job at 14 and have worked since them to have spending money. Despite my parents wealth I don’t eat out, I don’t but new clothes, I take the bus,etc. I don’t have shame for my background. I am actually quite proud considering that my dad grew up quite poor and that he was able to achieve this class mobility. But it doesn’t totally feel like where I am.]]> 2018-10-10 19:12:02 UTC https://padlet.com/christinacatlett/3q9006tf14b9/wish/291443057 https://padlet.com/christinacatlett/3q9006tf14b9/wish/291443526 our society's fear of discussing class perpetuates class inequity]]> 2018-10-10 19:12:47 UTC https://padlet.com/christinacatlett/3q9006tf14b9/wish/291443526
