Content: If you answered yes, then you have experienced a form of privilege! You may not have known it, but that doesn't mean it's not there. Privilege is defined as a benefit or set of benefits that members of certain social groups have. These benefits are usually unearned, and they're easy to take for granted when you've grown up as a member of a privileged social group. Think of privilege as being issues that you do not have to think about or worry about on a daily basis. Having privilege does not mean that you do not experience difficulty in life, however. You may have privilege because of one aspect of who you are, but you may also be denied privilege based on something else. Denial of privilege is called oppression, and chances are high that you have also experienced some form of oppression in your life. In this lesson, we're going to take a look at two very common types of privilege, and how they interact and differ from one another. {"error":true,"iframe":true}
