How do we confront the staggering income inequality that exists in our communities? Sociologist Dr. Jonathan Mijs looks at the way socioeconomic borders are built and argues that crossing these frontiers can change the deep inequities in our societies. This talk was filmed at TEDxLondon. All TEDx events are organized independently by volunteers in the spirit of TED's mission of ideas worth spreading.
