This week we talked about Social Class in America. This is a touchy subject. The very mention of social class can provoke people. Some people might feel anxious when forced to think or talk about social class. Other people might be fairly un-bothered by the subject.

Please watch the video “Tammy’s Story” first and answer the questions.

As you watch this segment, I want you to think carefully about the following two questions:

What characteristics mark people as belonging to one class or another?

How does growing up in a particular social class affect one’s self image and expectations in life?

For this week’s essay, please write up your responses to those two questions while using evidence and examples from the video “Tammy’s Story”
