I like the picture you use keona, to me I think it’s telling me that all people in this world should be treated equally. Something that stood out to me when looking at the image was the papers having a check mark and an x marked on the paper. When I was reading both articles “White privilege: unpacking the invisible knapsack” by Peggy McIntosh and “Oppression” by Marilyn Frye, I notice that both articles mentioned oppression and privilege which are both important because they go more in detail about gender. According to the article “Oppression” by Marilyn Frye on page one it states, “We need to think clearly about oppression and there is much that migrates against this.” Therefore there saying that that they want to have a clear understanding about that specific term. To me privilege means a right that other many people may not have. Also both article’s are telling me that there is inequality, which is racism something we are keep dealing with today. In the article, ‘White privilege: unpacking the invisible knapsack’ by Peggy Mclntosh it states , ” 1. I can if I wish arrange to be in the company of people of my race most of the time.” This is telling us that she/he can be in a company of their own race, meaning she has the right to do that if they chose too.
