Summary

A

  1. One similarity in the way social class is discussed in readings 4.1 and 4.2 is describing it as something that affects peoples over all quality of life. The difference in the way it is discussed is the structural issues such as in 4.1 system inequality, while 4.2 focuses on individual choices.
  2. I live In far rockaway NY and my social class consist of low/ middle income families , with lots of Immigrants. I am not surprised with the answer. I do feel like it is an accurate representation of the people who live in my neighborhood.
  3. Based off reading 4.2 I do notice a general pattern about social classes in NYC. I notice social classes plays a big part in where people live and what opportunities are available to them.
