Steps for Dismantling Privilege

• Step 1: NAME IT! Grapple with understanding of what privilege is and how it works in everyday life.
• Step 2: DEAL WITH IT! Identify privilege, address it, and take some personal responsibility for not allowing it to continue.
• Step 3: REFRAME IT! Build new roles, practices, shared values, and relationships with others to counteract privilege.

Questions to Consider

• Who is advantaged or privileged?
• How do I contribute to this form of privilege?
• What are some new roles or practices that would not allow this manifestation of privilege to continue?
• What are the risks for each person or group in this proposed new scheme of things? What are the benefits?
