More about the book
Cultural jobs are portrayed as exclusive to a privileged "creative class," with no historical golden age for social mobility within the arts. The book highlights the underrepresentation of women, people of color, and individuals from working-class backgrounds in both the cultural workforce and its audience, emphasizing systemic barriers that persist in the industry.
