In \u003cem\u003eOn Class\u003c\/em\u003e, she talks to writers, activists, those who work with the poor and those who are poor about what happens when we don't talk about poverty or class--and what will happen when we do.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGrowing up poor, Deborah Dundas knew what it meant to want, to be hungry, and to long for social and economic dignity; she understood the crushing weight of having nothing much expected of you. But even after overcoming many of the usual barriers faced by lower- and working-class people, she still felt anxious about her place, and even in relatively safe spaces reluctant to broach the subject of class. While new social movements have generated open conversation about gender and racism, discussions of class rarely include the voices of those most deeply affected: the working class and poor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn Class is an exploration of the ways in which we talk about class: of who tells the stories, and who doesn't, which ones tend to be repeated most often, and why this has to change. It asks the question: What don't we talk about when we don't talk about class? And what might happen if, ﬁnally, we did?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDeborah Dundas\u003c\/b\u003e is the Books Editor at the \u003cem\u003eToronto Star\u003c\/em\u003e and has been contributing reviews there and to other publications for more than 18 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 128\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.4 x 7.7 x 4.4 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 18, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42698626793535,"sku":"9781771964814","price":19.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/760429bdd52b352ac31e8db62d74e0f3.webp?v=1765010821","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/on-class-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
