This resonates with me as I've worked at companies where the ranks are filled with young people talking about diversity, who were raised in economically privileged environments. And they seem oblivious to how there are almost no people there from lower class backgrounds (or older people). I have a hard time bringing up my poor background in these contexts because the focus is on my skin color and gender.
