Oh Lawd, Here We Go Again!Mind Your Business, It's My Body: Roe v. WadeRoe v. Wade is at risk of being overturned by the Supreme Court.

In general, white privilege does not suggest that white people do not, or have never, struggled. Just as class privilege doesn't mean that person cannot end up poor. However, white p...2022-04-2652 min
