ÔÇ£Some people have a hard time recognising privilege, saying ÔÇ£I work hard. I don't get things handed to me.ÔÇØ I understand that.Here's how I respond: ÔÇ£privilege isn't bonus points for you & your team. Its the unfair penalties the other team gets that you don't.
Privilege isn't the prescence of perks & benefits. Its the absence of obstacles & barriers.That's a lot harder to notice.If you have hard time recognsing your privileges, focue on what you don;'t have to go through. Let that fuel your empathy & action.ÔÇØ
Marie Beecham
ÔÇ£The opinion of 10,000 men is of no value if none of them know anything about the subject.ÔÇØ
Marcus Aurelius
ÔÇ£The forest was shrinking, but the trees kept voting for the axe as its handle was made of wood & they thought it was one of them.ÔÇØ
