Tolerance.org: Teaching Tolerance: The Question of Class

Tolerance.org: Teaching Tolerance: The Question of Class: Paul C. Gorski challenges educators to push beyond a one-dimensional understanding of poverty. Rather than examining a so-called 'culture of poverty' -- a term used by the very popular Ruby Payne and others who write and speak about poverty at the national level -- Gorski urges educators to question the culture of classist assumptions that infiltrates our classrooms and schools.
