Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In the article, Crosley-Corcoran explains that recognizing our own privilege means acknowledging the opportunities that we have that we didn't earn, such as being born into a white family or having access to a network of successful people through our parents or community. It doesn't mean admitting that we are big jerks or defining complex concepts like intersectionality. Instead, it requires us to humbly recognize the ways in which we have been unfairly advantaged and use our privilege to work towards a more just and equitable society.
