Privilege and power checklist.
To clarify and to ask for help in my growth, here is an incomplete list of areas in my life where I have privilege. If you follow me, I ask that you help support me in anti-oppression work by calling me out when I abuse my privilege on this blog or say something shitty. But please be gentle with me. I am human, I am growing, I am learning.
I am
- Able-bodied and Hearing
- Neurotypical
- Cis-male-passing
- Thin
- High-School Educated and in college (more or less)
- English-speaking
- A US-born, documented citizen
- Young
- Sheltered (I have a consistent home that feels safe)
- Able to access the internet, libraries, and archives to educate myself
