I had never thought of the American first language but it only makes sense. I completely agree with you that by intentionally and so frequently segregating ourselves it seems to further the divide.

When I was in high school I had a friend who I knew was cutting himself but I didn't think I should offer to help, or talk because I didn't think they wanted to. (Don't ask, don't tell attitude.) You should really try to talk to people about what is going on with you and if they are afraid to talk to you, fear of making things worse or just ignorance, then talk to a counselor or a therapist who is trained to help.

If you really want more information you should read some of Ruby Payne's work. Essentially she says that clothing is valued by the poverty level for its individual style and expression. Personally it seems to me that most people who have less money are trying to fit into a world where it is almost impossible to be accepted if they are different (not having much money).
