“Working class” activist a one-percenter.
“By Evan Lips
“BOSTON – Northeastern University undergraduate Keely Mullen, the social-justice activist who spearheaded a series of marches Wednesday as part of a movement demanding free public college education, cancellation of student debt and a $15 minimum wage for all campus workers, told Fox News in an interview that “America’s 1 percent” should fund the students’ demands.
…
“Mullen’s online profile at Shiftgig says she graduated from Francis W. Parker High School in Chicago. According to the Francis W. Parker School website, it offers kindergarten through 12th grade classes for which tuition tops out at $34,560.
“Assessor records show that Mullen’s family has a home on West Wabansia Avenue in Chicago’s north side that carries a value of $989,990. According to BlockShopper, the student’s father, Steven Mullen, paid a little more than $1 million for the home in 2005.”

Although she told Cavuto her family was working class, “Mullen previously described her family as ‘a white, upper middle class family’ for the ‘Privilege Project.’" – Renee Nal.

(Most early links said Cavuto “embarrassed” Mullen or “educated” the young woman, but those words are not accurate. She does not show the slightest embarrassment in the video, and tells Cavuto “You’re wrong” and “I don’t believe you” when he backs a statement with facts.)
