Did you hear the Wales DTC’s Jessie Abrahams on Radio 4?

Jessie Abrahams’ (Education pathway, Cardiff) paper at the British Sociological Association Conference caught the eye of Laurie Taylor and his producer on Radio 4’s Thinking Allowed, and the resulting interview was broadcast on the programme on 4th August.

Jessie’s paper was entitled “Staying Classy: How Perceptions of Honour amongst the Working Class Prevents them from Using Nepotism to get Ahead” and it reflects some of her work in a research project that is related to her PhD but pre-dates it.  You can listen to the programme on the BBC website.
