Explanation:

Privilege, according to The Oxford Dictionary, is “a special right, advantage, or immunity granted or available only to a particular person or group.” This means that I, a white, cis-gendered, heterosexual female who attends a top-ten university, go about life with advantages that others who are not a part of these groups or identities do not possess. However, as a low-income, first generation college student, I also am aware of the privileges I am not granted when it comes to access to resources, understanding of the college system and how to navigate the complexities of the university. To admit to having privilege is to admit that there are historic and persistent systems of inequality and oppression in our community. But does that stem from the word itself, or something bigger?
