In my work with people who experience #classmobility, they often struggle to see themselves as doing "real work" when they shift into #whitecollar work. If your parents did manual/service work, it feels like a privilege to have your only physical worries be a neck hump & poor posture. (5/10)

The #classmobility dream is deeply American (and arguably deeply human, since it's our big draw for immigrants). We're told anyone can make it - but that puts enormous pressure on individuals to perform class work perfectly (7/10)

Having attained an upper middle class income after coming from a childhood spent in deep poverty, I'll always be aware of the class differences around me and my continued lack of actual wealth. #ClassMobility #SocialMobility #EconomicInequality
