[xmca] The flipside of the culture of poverty: the cognitive elite

[Gregory Allan Thompson <gathomps@uchicago.edu>]

Here is the other side of the culture of poverty discourse. Frankly, I think that this discourse is much more circulatable, and hence pernicious, than the CoP argument. This is the one that people can discuss in polite company. Nonetheless, the CoP argument is strongly implied leaving people secretly buying into the CoP argument - even people who would never admit to it in polite company.
