Qestion:
What does an acknowledgment of privilege do?
Seriously asking because I am stuck atop that intellectual fence on this one..
Matthew R. Morris
response:
Acknowledging your privilege allows you to escape the torture of always seeing how much more privileged than you other people are. Accepting your own privilege gives you the freedom to witness others' lack of privilege.

question:
What do you think it means to have the freedom to witness others’ lack of privilege?
Matthew R. Morris
response:
To not have blinders in place preventing you from seeing & acknowledging that others have less privilege than you. More bluntly, to not "disappear" the less privileged out of your own fear of them.
