Astute assessment of the implications of an inverse mirage; rich kids at Yale posing as upper middle class —https://palladiummag.com/2019/08/05/the-real-problem-at-yale-is-not-free-speech/ …

        This is a brilliant piece. And one of the best meditations on why championing socioeconomic diversity on colleges campuses or in industry is often met with uncomfortable silence.

        As someone who grew up poor and was thrust into an upper middle class area, i can FULLY attest to this. Its such a wierd thing to experience but it actually shows you how the "game" (if thats the right word) is played.

        I also experienced this mirage. But I actually think it benefited me to not think less of myself. Even when I was making just a few hundred dollars a week I always felt like I was doing well for myself.

        I wish was taught to be strong with great will power & with mind set being simple & humble (you are the best know it always - but treat other with human dignity always) yes it is difficult to balance but at least I could have started earlier - teach them good
