What happens when you stop believing in the Tooth Fairy-and Britain's class system? In #MillennialTruths: Class Dismissed, Alexander Paul Burton presents a fresh and engaging critique of Britain's entrenched cultural hierarchies. Through the lens of Pierre Bourdieu's Habitus, Cultural Capital, and cutting-edge sociological theories, Burton deconstructs the forces that perpetuate class consciousness while weaving his own journey from Britain to Canada.
From formative childhood experiences in Southampton and Somerset to his transformation in multicultural Toronto, Burton blends memoir with academic insight. He explores how cultural baggage weighs us down and how embracing transparency, authenticity, and meritocracy can liberate us. Packed with real-world anecdotes and actionable steps, this book challenges readers to reflect on their own assumptions-and equips them with tools to rewrite the script.
A must-read for millennials looking to shed outdated traditions and for anyone eager to imagine a Britain unshackled from hierarchy, #MillennialTruths: Class Dismissed offers wit, wisdom, and hope for a better future
