Debrief Questions
What was your socioeconomic status while growing up? How did that impact the way you moved through the world?
Did you ever or do you now have a “side hustle?” Do you feel that this is a necessary tool for younger people in America today?
What financial or social support structures have helped you throughout your life?
In what ways can we make an impact in our communities against poverty?
