Social Inequalities post

For this unit,  we looked at all of the components of social class that shape an individual's possibilities and problems.  Some things to consider for this post are: How do the following characteristics affect Social Class: Wealth, Education, Income, Power/Prestige, and Location (lecture notes)? Do you see how social class is played out at SHS? Where do you see class conflicts in the community? How do you see social class playing a role in your own life? How has your family's mobility been? Are you growing up in the same social class as your parents? How about from your grandparents? Where do you see your future in terms of social class?
  How are you affected by it? How might someone in poverty be affected by it?   You must include your reflections and thoughts on the following sources:  Sociolopoly,  30 Days on Minimum Wage, SPENT the game, The Line-Poverty, Coin Flipping activity, Income Gap video.
