Classified - How to Stop Hiding Your Privilege and Use It for Social Chan (Paperback)

This book speaks specifically to people of privilege who want to enforce social change for the better. The fight for economic justice can draw some stark battle lines. It's often painted as an 'us versus them' war, with the rich in the role of 'them,' and everyone else cast as "us." So where does that leave young people who believe in social change? Afraid of being branded the enemy, yet deeply committed to social justice, they're left wandering in a confusing no man's land. This conflict can lead most young people with wealth to keep their privilege hidden - making it impossible for them to bring their resources, access and connections to the struggle for social change. "Classified" is a resource guide for people with class privilege who are tired of cover-ups, who are ready to dig through the buried files and figure out how their privilege really works. Complete with comics, exercises and personal stories, "Classified" gives its readers the tools they need to stop hiding their privilege and instead put it to work for social change.
