Joe Mathews: The real California divide is one of height

Description:

Zocalo commentator Joe Mathews says California’s often overlooked class divisions often come down to two words: “hills” and “flatlands,” with the state’s wealthier residents literally looking down on those less fortunate. Mathews was pleased to see the hillside-flatlander divide emerge as a theme in the new series “Cobra Kai,” which follows characters from “The Karate Kid,” 30 years later. Mathews - who counts himself a proud flatlander – says the otherwise-flawed show makes a relevant point about the two very different worlds that Californians inhabit.
