DESCRIPTION:Exploring Class: A Weekend Workshop Saturday and Sunday, March 11th & 12th, 
 10 AM-6PM   An opportunity for intensive dialogue about a taboo topic! What 
 class did you grow up in? What strengths and limitations came out of your 
 class background? How has your class background affected your relationships 
 with people of the same and different classes? What are key elements of 
 your class culture? How do different class cultures look? What would you 
 like to ask people who grew up in completely different class backgrounds? 
 ??What are the larger economic and political factors affecting class now? 
 ??How do class dynamics show up in your life? Your work? Your home? Your 
 community? ??What are steps you can take to overcome class barriers in your 
 life personally and institutionally? ??How do you decide how much to pay, 
 how do you value different choices you make? Join a diverse group to 
 explore these questions and more!   Location: Park Day School, Oakland, CA 
 (accessible by BART)    Cost: We use a radical sliding scale (during the 
 workshop you will go ?through a process, called Cost Sharing, to determine 
 the amount you will actually pay). The average costs are often about $400, 
 but in the past ?participants have paid between 0 and $1,200.  If 
 transportation or childcare costs would get in your way, please contact us
