This is a course on social inequality. In this course, we will seek to understand the effects and reproduction of social inequality in the United States. We will try to answer questions such as: What is Inequality? How does it matter? How does it work? How do parents’ social class and other aspects of their life situations impact their kids’? How do government policies matter?

Educational Inequality
Below is the link to an April 2011, report by Yahoo. In this report, an allegedly 'homeless' women is being charged for sending her son to a school outside their schooling district. Her reason for doing this was because her neighborhood schools were not 'equal' and were 'worst' than other schools. This goes to show that governmental policies restricts and incriminate those who wish to offer their children better education. What do you all think?
