Ignoring Classism

Many people choose to ignore classism in general. In A Two-Fold Unveiling: Unmasking Classism in Group Work, it talks about how people believe that they live in a classless society. It goes on to explain that people do not want to talk about classism because it causes them to be uncomfortable. I find this to be true. People, with any issue of oppression tend to at first ignore it and hope that it will go away. It is not wise to do this because when you ignore the problem you are, in essence, contributing to the problem itself.
