text: 'Privilege', like almost everything else in politics, is in the eye of the beholder. People on the left see it only on the right; people on the right see it only on the left.
  
  Which is more 'privileged': a tenured female academic of colour, or a white lower-middle or working-class man with only a high school education or less?
  
  If we look at 'privilege' only through the prisms of race and sex without also looking at class, we get a distorted picture. I believe the academic buzz-word for this is 'intersectionality'.
