Cousin Katie calls and after talking for a while about family and childhood memories, she says, “So what’s this ‘white privilege’ all about anyway? We sure didn’t have any privilege!”
I know not to get into this with my cousin, we’ve always had political differences and so we tread lightly or stay away from talking about our liberal and conservative points of view. But I do understand why she is saying this and I respond, “Yes, we worked hard when we were growing up.”
Coming from a large family of cousins and siblings, we all had jobs from about 13 years old and it was understood that when you left home you’d support yourself. Securing a good stable job was the most important thing and if you wanted to go to college, that would be wonderful, but you’d have to work during those years and maybe get scholarships too. It’s just the way it was in a ....

Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny attends a hearing to consider an appeal against an earlier court decision to change his suspended sentence to a real prison term in Moscow, Russia, February 20, 2021.
