EQUALITY AT ANY COST?


getting grilled

I have class on the brain lately - not class as in "teaching class" but class as in social stratification. I'll probably prep a longer post later but for now, chew on this.

Read this article about sex discrimination at one of Phoenix's more exclusive country clubs and then ponder:

Is equality always worth striving and fighting for in principle even when one struggle for equality still reifies or leaves untouched other structures of inequality?

Note: I'm not trying to posit a "gender vs. class" debate here.
