@maisonrickie: These 4 invisible currencies run our society. Today, we cover briefly Pierre Bourdieu’s concept of the different forms of capital that hold soft power over all of us. Let me know your thoughts in the comments below!
You should read the Substack aesthetic intelligence, it’s really interesting esp on the topic of art / taste

Also, these are all set to white/european standards which continues to make Western nations successful at colonising and destroying the remainder of the world (& diaspora’s) through culture, economy, social, and symbols. Ps. A UCT sociology major🦋 great conversations I’m following you now

As a sociology major, I thoroughly enjoyed learning about all of this. I can’t unsee how this plays out in our capitalistic society all the time

very nice :) he also defined the term symbolic violence, meaning the ruling class defines their own subculture as superior to the subculture of the lower classes

Billionaire donating money = tax write offs 🫠 they never do it from the purely of their heart, but from the profit perspective

My question now is how do we stop schools (year 6-year 12) from functioning as a sorting machine and make them equalizers?

The way you can convey the subject and explain it flawlessly is a testament to how intelligent you are.

Great point regarding Bourdieu’s theory🤍 from a sociological perspective, Bourdieu shows how things like status, taste and prestige operate as invisible currencies that reinforce existing social hierarchies!
