Class questions.
Does class change with geographical and symbolical space ori s purely performatic?
Is class only determined by the hegemonic power, or is a game that fluctuates by
different interests of different social bodies for survival?
Notes:
. Intersectionality, race and class: narratives.
. Identity politics.
. Articulate their pain via individual experience (59)
. Access the forums in which their pain will be recognized and heard (and not
read as something else);
. Be recognized as worthy of having that pain;
. Make identifications with a category in the first place.
“People who cannot authorize themselves through their individual experience of
pain, because they do not see everyday suffering as exceptional, are unable to
participate” (59).

(19) Bourdieu; “it is not just the volume and composition of the right sort of cultural
capital (for national belonging) but, rather, that the right sort of capital depends on
the processes but which it is acquired and displayed. Regardless of how much national
capital one accumulates, how one accumulates it makes and important difference to
its capacity to be converted.”
