My thoughts on white Privilege and oppression,
I have been in situations where I had to stand up for my friends and family members who are darker than me. How can we just accuse someone of stealing when they just walked into a store? That is a privilege I have. I can simply walk into a store and not get followed around because of the color of my skin. I am aware of the privilege I have of being able to afford rent in New York City. To simply have a roof over my head. I am aware and grateful. I will continue to spread awareness and ask to hear everyone else’s experiences and how I can help them. No one should ever feel invisible. We must acknowledge the word oppression in every aspect of life because it exists. Just because you do not experience it does not mean it does not.
