Amendment 
 
(note: you can get this from Amazon for a 
few dollars and it will ship in just a few days. Or, get it from the
library. Share it if you can. It raises the issues of language and social 
(in)justice, and how inequality is perpetuated by the symbols of everyday life.

Summarize the argument, and then write a strong book critique (not a
book report, but a CRITIQUE), laying out strengths and weaknesses and
what it tells us about class and justice and what we can do to change it,
if anything.
