Having privilege does not mean that an individual is immune to life’s hardships, but it does mean having an unearned benefit or advantage one receives by the nature of their identity. The process of becoming comfortable and open to acknowledging, critiquing, and accepting one's privilege is not easy. Thinking about privilege and challenging it is an ongoing exercise - we need to constantly learn and try to understand the power imbalances that one's a part of.
In this episode, we will discuss the topic of understanding your privilege with Ana Azzahra, an assistant lecturer at UPI and Founder of @saungriset. She is passionate about children with disabilities and has worked in multiple projects that let her understand the definition of privilege first hand.
