[Rachel Martin]

There's an excellent DVD from the Media Education Foundation on the
portrayal of the working class on TV, "Class Dismissed."

I'm looking for films/film clips and short readings to help high school
students discuss social class in America and in their lives.  Any
suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Shanti
