Show Notes
This week we're introducing the alliterative and uber important concept of social stratification: how people are sorted into different hierarchical groups based on the intersections of class, race, gender, wealth, etc. Using the perspectives of Karl Marx and Max Weber, we discuss capitalism's role in this hot unequal mess. Take a listen to the episode, as we break it down the current state of inequality in the world. And don't forget to give us a rating and review after you listen! Mahalooooo!
