Answer to Question 1

Face work takes on utmost importance in communities where there is very little prestige to begin with. This is doubly the case for young, poor, minorities. As Goffman points out, there must be a shared understanding and mutual agreement among people to help one another save or maintain face. Otherwise, social interactions will break down as people perceive they have lost the little prestige available in the form or respect.
