Conversations in Courage

Privilege, Crybabies & The Bootstraps Myth


Listen Later

Privilege is something we all benefit from in some form or another.  While it is irrefutable, as soon as we try to cast a light on aspects of our privilege (eg. White privilege, able-bodied, heterosexual, etc.), people rail, scream and gaslight. Perhaps it is in our wiring to look at things as a zero-sum game, however, progress as a society is dependent on us recognizing that rising tides truly do raise all ships.
