WHAT exactly IS HIGH CLASS?

Is it really all the glitz and the glam that social media makes it seem? We think not. LET US EAT CAKE tackles what society thinks high class is versus what high class actually means. From exploring what it means to be royalty in other cultures (We Were Queens, page 18) to showing that not everyone has to fit the expectations that come with high class (Counterculture Revolution, page 44), this issue allows for everyone to have a place in their own meaning of what high class is.
