Class? [free write]
So, I came into class and the free write was asking about 'class'. The question is "when you hear the word "class: what do you think of? Originally I'm like 'wtf kind of question, im sitting IN a class (-__-)' Then I thought perhaps she meant class like a classy lady?--NO, neither. So i read the rest of the questions and Hannah wants to know about classes like SOCIAL class (duh.). When I hear class I obviously thought of other things, but now that I know what Hannah means, when i think of class in terms of society i think of middle class. I think middle class because I think my family is middle class, but lower middle class (sheesh!). Upper class, the more wealthy, when i think of them i think snooty, greedy, selfish, and rich..oh and WHITE (lol). Upper class can also be like white collar, professional jobs. Middle class the larger percent of America. Middle class = working class. I feel like they are typically in jeans (Jeans were created as the working class pant), The middle/working class are shown as minorities too. Then the lower class, the poorer of society, whether they are poor due to their own issues or not. The lower class also includes minorities. Perhaps even those getting government aid, though the middle class due to the current economic state, has been receiving governmental aid. There is no definite class system in America, it exists but there are no lines drawn....
