    Classism isn’t just hate, it’s ignorance too. What are “normal” ways to use a park are completely different if you only ever see them briefly when you walk through them on your morning dog walk, or maybe to let your kids play on the playground after school. It will take a lot of deprogramming to change the perspective to parks being a place to be, and live life.
