Structural Mobility
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
Structural mobility is movement caused by change in the economy itself rather than by anything individuals did, moving many people at once in the same direction.
Show

Watch for
Students often read mobility stories as individual achievement, forgetting structural mobility runs downward as readily as upward.
