In this article Reverend Dr.linda Anderson states that in a world of racism, sexism, and classism the most important one about classism is that it is " treatment of people in society based on their economic and educational status, as well as lifestyle".

Dr. Linda Anderson |
Classism is effective in various ways and its a "spiritual issue" that effects ''access to resources" beacause we chose to ignore the problem constantly.
Dr. Linda Anderson |
In a world of classism " we pretend it doesnt exist'' and by doing so we will deprive poeple of decent life.

Summary of Source (Three-Four Sentences of the Who, What, Where, Why, and How in your own words. NO OPINION):
In this article by Dr. Linda Anderson she truly defines classism in america. She explains how each class in america defines themselves as. Classism is defined between racism and sexism which leads to the economy being bad and the rate of unemployment we have in america already.
Credibility of Source:
Author or Site: Who is the author? What training have they had? If there is no author, examine the site. What is the purpose of the site? Who funds the site?
The author of this article is Dr.Linda Anderson, she studied at College year in Athens in Athens,Greece. This article is informative but also has some personal opinion.
Bias: Do you detect a bias (a favoring of either side) in the author's writing?
There is only negative things about classism there is nothing positive about classism we live in a world where society thinks its better than others.
References: Does the author cite references in the writing? If so, do these add or take away from the credibility?
Through experiences 27% of americans claim they are low income or poor, only 2% claim to be rich, and 70% say they are middle and upper class.This takes away from credidility due to the fact that we are divided.
Use of Source: How will you use this source in your project?
I will use this source to expand the process of what classism really is.
