“Privileges . . . are the specific benefits or advantages that come with possessing privilege. These can include access to better education, healthcare, job opportunities, and social networks. Privileges can also be more subtle, such as not having to worry about being discriminated against or harassed due to one’s race or gender. Privileges can be both tangible and intangible, and they often work together to reinforce existing power structures and inequalities.”
