Privilege is invisible to those who have it.

Summary

This quote speaks to the idea that individuals who possess privilege often do not recognize or acknowledge the advantages they have in society simply because they have never experienced its absence. Privilege, whether it be based on race, gender, socioeconomic status, or other factors, can provide certain individuals with advantages and benefits that are not available to others. However, due to the inherent nature of privilege, those who possess it may be oblivious to the inequalities and injustices faced by marginalized groups, leading to a lack of understanding and empathy towards those who are disadvantaged.
