Economic Divide: Understanding the Causes and Solutions
A one-hour session on the gap between rich and poor as we actually live it: the lift rules in our buildings, the haggling at the vegetable cart, the weddings nobody can scale down, the English that opens some doors and shuts others. Where does the gap come from, and what would actually close it? Twelve independent cards; open three or four.
