I am enjoying Jensen's book so far, especially the parts about language. When we were asked the first week of class to write about what we thought our class position was, I recall thinking of myself as more working class with some middle class values thrown in. I cited my parent's jobs, the 'culture' and 'art' that came from my paternal grandmother, and schooling. I never really thought about language as being a sort of class indicator, at least not in the way that Jensen has articulated.
