¿Que privilegios tienes tu?

What privileges do you have?

In this episode, I discuss the levels of privilege that I have. Privilege is a word that is being tossed around back and forth to indicate this higher status of opportunities. But despite the “affluent opportunities,” many benefit for different levels of privileges that other individuals may not. 

I discuss White Privilege and how this is also affecting Latinx communities and how colorism has been an overall bias within our communities.
