emancipated to full legal equality, yet economic inequality is still as prevalent as it was during the period of first-wave feminism. A clear division still exists between the ideological preferences of genders and social classes; Working class and men preferred women to be identified “with her activities at home” while middle class and women preferred to be identified “with the same sphere her husband does, and to have equal amount of power in the marriage” As a result, women have disproportionality
All civilizations — while similar in several aspects — have differences. For example, Rome and Greece may have similar architecture and art, but their language and cultures are notably different. Although a few civilizations may not have borrowed ideas from other societies, many follow the same path to success, which would result in similar governments, religions, and culture.

In the article “Shadowy Lines that Still Divide” by Janny Scott and David Leonhard a controversy lies on whether or not mobility can happen depending on your social class, and if it still exists.

As an example of the intersections of race and class, DiAngelo and Sensoy consider a white woman living in poverty; someone who faces both the barriers of poverty and sexism, yet no barriers of racism, but under her position of poverty is generalized under mainstream culture's idea of the "poor". The reason why communication and alliance between individuals can be repressed is that we are uninformed apart from everyday life on matters of these social inequalities and unprepared to engage with or
Today we will be talking about children’s role in culture diversity. I will be asking you about how a child develops early temperament on gender, race, and social class and what kind of expectations holds a multicultural perspective in local kindergarten settings. Welcome Ms. Fung. Let’s get started. Interviewer: What (do you think) is cultural diversity for children in early years?

Based on Jane Eyre’s early life, one’s status, class, and position are all determined at birth. During her time under Miss. Reed’s care, Bessie continually reminds over again that “if [Miss. Reed was] to turn [Jane] off, [Jane] would have to go to the poor-house” (16). From the society’s view, status change and any attempts to climb the social ladder are disreputable. The reprimanding tone Bessie applies heightens Jane’s silent understanding of her position within the household. Driven into her mind
that schools serve to socialize children into their place in society and that in doing so they reproduce the existing class structures. He posits that the differences in cultural capital (which he refers to as class subculture) of each socioeconomic class are produced by the different child rearing strategies used by parents of different classes and then reinforced by differences in the schools attended by children of different classes.
