Laura Harvey and Sarah Leaney and award-winning comics creator Danny Noble have created an illustrated journey through the history, sociology and lived experience of class.

University of Brighton sociologists Laura Harvey and Sarah Leaney and award-winning comics creator Danny Noble have published Class: A Graphic Guide, an illustrated journey through the history, sociology and lived experience of class.

It asked questions such as: What can class tell us about gentrification, precarious work, the role of elites in society, or access to education? And, how have thinkers explored class in the past, and how does it affect us today, and how does class inform activism and change?

Class: A Graphic Guide aims to challenge simplistic and stigmatising ideas about working-class people, discusses colonialist roots of class systems, and looks at how class intersects with race, sexuality, gender, disability and age.
