How Does Social Class Affect You?: Conversation about Diversity in Arlington

How Does Social Class Affect
You?

A conversation about
diversity in Arlington

 “We are Many Social
Classes” is the topic for the June 9 Conversation
about Diversity sponsored by the Vision 2020 Diversity Task Group.

 Do you think about what social class you are in? Are you in
a different social class than your parents or most of your relatives? If so,
what does this mean for your outlook on life or your way of living? Do others
judge you, positively or negatively, because of your social class? How do we decide
our own and others social class? Does it matter? Do people act, speak or
approach life differently depending on their social class?

 President Obama has said "inequality is the defining challenge of
our time?" Do you agree? Why is it important to have equality? How does
inequality affect me? Why do I have to care about it?

 Come to share your views and hear others opinions in a
relaxed, supportive atmosphere. Everyone is welcome to attend this free event.

The “We are Many Social Classes” conversation will be held
on Monday, June 9, 7:30pm to 9:00pm at the Jefferson Cutter House in Arlington
Center, at the corner of Mass. Ave and Mystic Street. Enter through the Cutter
Gallery from the parking lot behind the building. Social hour with refreshments
begins at 7:00pm.
