Classism is still in existence...

It is only a fool that will blind his own eyes, pretending not to realise that classism is still in existence, and it will be here to stay until none is regarded inferior or worthless based on their lack of academic titles, perceived social status or simply because their livelihood is situated below desirability; until we realise that school is just one source out of many sources of information and knowledge; until academic success is no longer seen as the only success there's to pursue, and until we start recognising the value and wherewithal of autodidacts and self-skilled artisans.

Classism will remain a present continuous phenomenon until we stop acting as if nothing great can come from a modest beginning, and stop reminding others of their humble beginnings; until it is clear that not everyone has to dress like a corporate executive in order to command respect; until we stop relegating others because of the company they keep or the people they roll with; until we stop liking things or supporting causes only when we know or admire the people involved, and until our invitations to social events and ceremonies are no longer anchored in whose presence is espected to be more lucrative.

Classism will not pass away until comfort is no longer seen as the birthright of the supposed high birth; until we stop that indiscriminate imposition of our individual ideals on everyone regardless; until we stop listening to or ignoring others because of who they are or who they know and focus on what they know and what they have to say - and finally, until those who are employed to serve do just that and stop acting as if they're doing the rest of humankind a favour.
