Reflection people like Us

Both websites were interesting and gave a lot of information about social class. The "people like us" site had a lot of information on your very own social awareness and where your aspects of personal preference would stand. Giving you a class through your thoughts and judgment. Getting insight on the way that i am viewed based simply on my selection is a informative outlook. When i played, they told me i was mixture of different social classes, which made me feel happy at first and than confused. The thought entered my mind that i am in a transition in my life where my choices are changing from my intake of education, which shapes my social development. The stories of the different people help to see how social class effect the actions that are made not only on oneself but decisions from your family, which believe it or not play a role in how each and every one of us make decisions in our life. The story of Reberta a African American woman who fell for her southern lover was an insight of a marriage, on both ends were not appreciated by each others family, and with this; visits to their family became less frequent and distant.

The second website i visited was center for working class studies. In this website i learned about how the rates of unemployment have raised. This is something to be concerned about, because many individuals without jobs are giving up, and as students getting ready to hit the workforce this is scary to think that many will be unemployed although they are qualified to work in areas of our study. These two websites made me wonder, we know that women are paid less than men and there likely to be second to the male applying to the same potions. This seems it would be unfair for woman who do not have a job who do not want to go on welfare yet it would seem there choices don't point them in any other direction. Which make me wonder what gender, race, and age group makes up the lower class of our society?
