Class Divide explored two distinct worlds and realities in the Chelsea neighborhood of New York City. From the questions below, pick one to answer. You must use examples from the film to support your answer. Let's take fifteen minutes or so to write in your journals. Then we will share out.


  1.  In Class Divide we learn that since 2009, the average rent for Chelsea apartments rose 10 times faster than for all of Manhattan. What have the implications been?

2.  What was the role of the High LIne in the gentrification of Chelsea?

3. What do you think about Yasmin’s 115 Steps project? What does dialogue across divides achieve?

4.  In the documentary, Hyisheem claims, “It’s not racism; it’s classism.” Agree or disagree and support.
