Understanding Privilege
Privilege refers to unearned advantages gained by not being affected by oppressive systems. This privilege is not something one has to work for; it simply exists because the individual is not impacted by a specific form of oppression. Understand that privilege affords both tangible benefits and the absence of negative experiences. For instance, it might mean accessing spaces without assistance or avoiding harassment in daily activities. Understand that having privilege does not equate to having power. It is possible to experience oppression in one system while holding privilege in another. Discover how to use Privilege as a tool for self-reflection, prompting you to consider how you are impacted by or benefit from systems of oppression and what this means for your work and lives.
