[quote=Anonymous]I’m a white, foreign, short-sighted, somewhat educated, athletically challenged, non-religious, not very affluent child of an alcoholic non-English-speaking refugee. Can someone please let me know how my privilege scorecard balances out? My point is that some of this starts to get nonsensical. You’re putting people in boxes. Privilege is a real concept, is context-specific and is particularly useful in understanding and redressing systemic inequities. But some of this conversation seems either like finger pointing at others who seem to enjoy some advantage, or ignores nuance. My father was the victim of racism and was also very racist himself. You can both have advantage and not have advantage which is confusing and fairly meaningless. It’s only meaningful when you use it in context. [/quote]
