[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s inherently privileged. It is not inherently racist. There was advice in the NYT article to invite economically disadvantaged students to join your pods. I doubt anyone on DCUM will.[/quote] This. People have also suggested that, while you do what is best for your family, put a little time/energy in ensuring equity for others. For instance, encourage your schools to get technology out to everyone who needs it. The point is, for those of us with privilege, not to forget that others do not have privilege and still need our support/help in getting what they need. Whether that is inviting someone into your pod, donating to a cause helping others, or using your voice.[/quote]
