THIS WEEK'S ECHO The main point of the discussion is that social class distinctions go much deeper than simply how much money we have. "We don 't do a very good job in America of talking about social class and when we do, we tend to focus on money," Howard said. In his book Learning Privilege: Lessons of Power and Identity in Affluent School- ing, he describes three types of capi- tal: social , cultural , and economic. It is not just how much money one have that defines class, it is the social in- sight and connections one has because of one's social standing.
