One of the most interesting parts of the lecture to me was the discussion regarding privilege and recognizing your privilege. I personally believe that people need to recognize their privilege whether its white privilege, gender privilege etc. in order to make significant change in society. Many people will state the misfortunes in their lives and simply say how am I privileged, when all of these horrible things have happened. I just want to know how can you explain white privilege to people who might not have had easy lives without seeming to dismiss their stories and struggles?
